The most ideal situation is to get out from under Markstrom's contract to a sucker who will take the chance on him. There are always suckers. Media members today think of the guy as vezina calibre! If the Flames take on a stop-gap goaltender who can take on 45 games while giving Wolf some, that would be great. If Treliving ends up in Toronto, it would be great to trade Markstrom there if he believes in him, for the contract of Murray (stash him on the IR for next year). Then sign Blackwood to a show me contract for a couple seasons to ease Wolf, and that should be a nice tandem for a couple years.
