I assume your post had something to do with whether Flames have helped goalies get better.

Talbot was better in his year here than he was before he got here.
Markstrom improved from year 1 to year 2, now he has stepped back a lot.
Ramo improved while he was here, didn't he?
Rittich improved for a while he was here. I don't feel he regressed as much as he hit a wall.

I see your point that Flames have rarely, if ever, taken a goalie through years of continuous improvement without a step back. But does that often happen with goalies? Who are the goalies that left here and immediately got better?
