Who was the worst player/goalie to play for the Flames?
Now before we all start rushing to hurl abuse at Gary Leeman.
They have to have played for at least a half season, although dishonourable mentions are welcome.
They have to be properly, thoroughly bad. Not just a defensive liability/turn over based life form or allergic to goals/assists. They need to be a two way train wreck and not otherwise useful for drawing penalties or playing enforcer.
Goalie wise it can't just be save percentage, take into account relative quality of opposition, softness of goals and time in net. Lots of goalies have had to come cold off the bench or play the Second game of a back to back behind an exhausted team and gotten blown out. Eating losses to keep the starter fresh.
Few Goalies have truely been actively terrible and maintained a spot out of a coach or GM's stubborn pride.
Germyn Titov and Anton Babchuk come to mind, but they seem to at least be decent locker room guys and Babchuk at least had a howitzer of a shot. I'm looking for entirely unredeemable.
There is no shortage of sub-par back up goalies either.
