This is good news. I thought Shantz looked better in the pre-season with the Flames than Keetley did.

Heck, I thought Shantz looked better in the pre-season with the Flames than McBackup did. Plus he made the save that allowed Theo's goal to stand as the winner.

I know this will fall on deaf ears, but David Shantz isn't even fifth on the Calgary Flames depth chart at goaltender.

1. Miikka Kiprusoff
2. Curtis McElhinney
3. Leland Irving
4. Matt Keetley
5. (arguably) Joni Ortio

6. Any North American-based goaltender not currently under contract to a NHL team, of which David Shantz is but one of many.

Shantz isn't even under contract. It's simply a fact that cannot easily be glossed over.

David Shantz should marry Anton Strahlman and have little Robert Dome babies and together they would win every preseason game ever played.

And CP would want them all on the team (contract or not).

But then what would Vancouver have to be proud of?

Minor league contract with Calgary = Contract with Abbotsford

Shantz has no connection with the Flames and can be snapped up by ANY NHL team at a moment's notice.

It means he is not signed to a two way contract with Calgary. He is only on a minor league contract with the Abbotsford Heat. He cannot ever be called up to Calgary unless they were to sign him to an NHL contract. Therefore, Calgary does not own his rights and any other NHL team can sign them if they would like to.

WRONG!

Vandermeer is on an AHL contract only also.
Because if thats the case they have no part of assigning him to an ECHL team and he didn't sign a PTO to play for the HEAT.

Hes on an AHL contract with CALGARY. To play for calgary and I hope not because that means bad bad things he would have to sign a new contract with Calgary.

Abbotsford didn't sign shantz. Calgary has him on a minor league deal like Vandermeer.

If he had a chance to play for calgary he would have to sign him to a new contract.
