Not surprising that he moves on, given how stacked we already are between the pipes.

good luck Danny!

I would assume that in there exit interview there are told if they are being kept or not, is that a safe assumption. I would assume he was told to look elsewhere?

I guarantee he lights it up over there. I think he is a solid goalie with a lot of potential. I wish he would've got a better shot with the Flames this next year.
Ramo and Berra are unproven and Joey Mac is a backup.

Meh. Good luck Danny. You were a longshot to ever play a game in the NHL and you did it. I'm not sure he'll ever have the skills to be a regular in the NHL. Go make your money in Europe. Plenty of 2nd tier players have done very well over there.

He was awful in his short stint here but by all accounts great for Abbotsford so good luck to him in Sweden which is probably the smart move for him right now.

No he wasn't... probably just by virtue of the small sample size but he did a decent enough job in his cup of coffee (of course given how low the bar was set by Kipper and Irving this year that's not saying a lot).

Wish you had a better go-around in the NHL, Danny. I believe you have the talent to be in the NHL but playing in Canada, you're always going to be scrutinized and heavily under the looking glass if you don't perform right away. With a few more NHL games, I think we could have seen what you're capable of. You weren't as bad as some people were making you out to be - I'm very thankful you helped with that home win over Vancouver back in March and got the W.

Good luck Taylor. You got a win in the NHL, not many can say that. This is the right move for him. Wonder how long until Irving gets signed in Europe?

What?



As for Taylor - his strong AHL play last year played himself into getting a few more NHL paycheques which I'm sure is more than he expected. Good luck to him.

First Cervenka, then Taylor. Who's next? Doesn't anybody want to stay with the Flames? We're doomed.

Nice to see a hard-working guy land on his feet.

We should give them Taylor in return for Loob as president or GM.
