Goaltending makes or breaks your season, and relying on a 36 year old goaltender to play like he did the first half is IMO a recipe for disaster.

Here's hoping the newcomers and new coach can fix a lot of the problems the team faced and won't have to rely on goaltending as much.
Same, its probably the #1 issue going into the season,

Basically what happens if Smith gets hurt....

I would think the Flames backup has to play around 25 games this season to lower the workload.
