Pelletier assigned to the Q.

He doesn't really have a spot in Stockton. Maybe they're waiting for somewhere else to assign him or perhaps someone is injured :/

Maybe they want to keep the Russian compatriots together? Maybe they want to work with Gillies at bit more? Maybe they're working on a destination for Gillies?

I wonder if they might want to have Rittich and/or Talbot watch one of the games from up top while the other one plays, so they just kept Gillies to sit as the backup?

The Flames have a history of keeping PTOs for the duration of camp. I wouldn't read into them staying too closely.

Need a goalie for practice reps as well.

I actually disagree - I am glad that Zagidulin got sent down. Rittich and Talbot need the net to work on their games for now. With Talbot's confidence level, he probably needs to know that the Flames have confidence in him, and hopefully this will get him the needed reps in practice (and games probably) to try and get him back to his starter level.


Zagidulin will hopefully get a lot more reps in Stockton, and continues to show well while still adjusting to North American ice. Probably the best thing all around for these 3 goalies. They all need the practices and starts as none can be considered an 'established starter' - at least not yet.

The Flames need to make 5 cuts to be roster compliant. If I had to guess it would be Rieder, Smith-Pelly, Rinaldo, MacDonald and Davidson.

My guess on Gillies is that they are trying to arrange a loan to an AHL team. That, or he is getting one last shot.

You think they'll run with 3 goalies?

IMO it'll be Gillies, Davidson, DSP, Quine, and Rinaldo (signed to two-way deal and assigned)

Rieder and Amac make the team

Another possibility is that Gillies has been traded for a player currently on waivers and they're just waiting for that player to clear

Don't they always keep three goalies for a while for spreading around practice workload?

Doesn't Gillies also have to clear waivers?

I forgot about Gillies. I still think that they cut them all, and have a 22 man roster to remain cap compliant after Tkachuk signs. Maybe they will offer a 2-way deal to Rinaldo or Rieder and place them directly in Stockton.

Assuming Tkachuk is here by day 1, they still need to cut 6 players.
