That's still one of my favourite trade threads with people complaining that they saw the thread title and thought the Flames had somehow acquired both Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook in a blockbuster.

I think this is the start of a much, much bigger trade.

Yup Gillies is out longterm

Roger Millions @RogMillions
#Flames Asst. GM Brad Pascall says Kevin Poulin is an insurance move for AHL Stockton adding depth. Jon Gillies will be out for a while.

Roger Millions @RogMillions
Gillies suffered a lower body injury late last week. Will be out an unspecified time. #Flames

So the Flames have 5 AHL/NHL goalies?

What happens when Hiller returns? Is Gillies bound for the ECHL?

My hope is this is part of a bigger trade but who knows?

I would imagine Poulin or Simpson are the odd men out there. Traded, waived, press box, whatever. They won't stunt Gillies' development for Simpson or Poulin.

Which NHL goalie that will help this team do you think is available and at a price that is worth paying?

Teams aren't in the habit of trading NHL starters 15 games into a season, at least not starters that we are going to want to add.

How has Gillies looked this season by the way? I know he started slow. Was he putting things together before he got hurt?

Didn't he have two shutouts in his first three games or something?

Hiller hasn't even skated, according to Wills yesterday. So with Gillies out, they needed a body.
