I can't remember anytime where the Flames were this deep in goaltending prospects. You need to have Rittich as the backup or trade someone out so there is physical room (if you bring someone in).
Bringing in an experienced backup is a pretty heavy vote of non-confidence to Gilles and Rittich. At that point you are writing them off at the NHL level.
