Flames Flames re-sign Ramo to 1 yr deal ($3.8 mil)

Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun
Hearing that the Oilers have kicked the tires on UFA goalies Ramo and Neuvirth... but I think Ramo more likely to re-sign with Flames

update:

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
Ramo extension in CAL is one year

Chris Johnston @reporterchris
Karri Ramo's one-year extension with #flames is worth $3.9M.

Wouldn't surprise me, not much left out there for him that looks better than Calgary. If they do I hope they can get something for Hiller in a trade. It's what I've wanted all along.

I would be okay with that as long as the term and dollars are decent.

If we need to give 4 years and $4+M then just keep Hills and Orts and address the goalies later

That's rather unexpected. Not sure how I feel about this.

Not surprised. The goalie market's been dried up, and this still leaves the door open to trading Hiller and running with a Ramo/Ortio tandem. Hopefully the $ and term are reasonable.

If Ramo is re-signed then it's likely Hiller will be traded and we run with Ramo/Ortio this year.

I can't see Ortio spending the season in Stockton. He was fantastic in his call up and has nothing but praise from management. He's ready to go. And frankly, I trust him in net far more then I would trust Hiller in net.

Would much rather run with Hiller/Ramo/Ortio than just Hiller/Ortio. In the latter, you're one injury away from a very bad situation.

Good. A combo of Ramo/Ortio is still the best way forward for this team.

Of all the good that Treliving has done the last week, I just didn't understand all the rumours of going after middling goalies, when there was a pretty good combination at home that wouldn't cost anything but salary.

only one year? That's surprising, I thought he'd get much more term after his playoff performance.

One year is perfect. Motivation for a long term deal.

Hiller won't be happy riding the pine when he's up for a contract himself.

Trade coming I think.

Bewildering. The goalie UFA market was very weak this year, he could have gotten a longer term than one year. What the hell is Treliving putting in the punch?

I'm not a huge fan of Ramo/Hillier but after Dubnyk went back to Minnesota I wasn't a big fan of what else was out there. One more year of the pair are is okay, or trade Hillier if you think Ortio is up to it.
