The good
Talbot
Ramo

The bad & the ugly
Berra
Ortio
Hiller
Elliott
Smith
Rittich
Markstrom

Vladar: TBD but not looking great

What do they all have in common? They either regressed or had a horrific collapse of some sort by the end of their Flames tenures

Kari Ramo is the only goalie that played multiple seasons for the Flames and was able to sustain consistently decent numbers

What are these two doing to guide these players and help them with their technical and positional issues?

Why are more cases than not irreparable by the end of their time on this team?

A clear pattern is forming here with the trajectory of goalies and there have been too many players of different backgrounds that have fallen to the same fate to brush it off as coincidence

With a promising young talent like Wolf now coming up through the ranks, what is this team doing in order to make sure he has the right people in his ear guiding him when he graduates to the NHL level, so we avoid a similar outcome with him?

I'd like to see some internal accountability as it has been a decade of more or less the same results
