Looking at goalie stats this morning. Looks like he is lighting it up in Philly. Good for him. I was always a big fan of Vladar. Seemed like a great teammate.

Having said that I’m interested in seeing what Cooley turns into. It did not look promising in preseason and at the end of last season. But he’s been really good in the minimal amount of game time he’s seen this year. Like Wolf he gets hung out to dry by our borderline defense. But has made some great saves to keep the Flames in the games he has played in.

In my opinion since it looks like this season is heading into a dumpster. I think Cooley should get more ice time so he can develop and so Wolf doesn’t get physically or mentally burnt out. I’m assuming based on his performance that Cooley has gained the trust of the coaches post pre season.
