Your guess or you heard it from someone like Lebrun, Friedman, McKenzie, Kypreos, Scorpion?

"It started at Nashville," Boucher said. "I gave up a goal in the last few seconds of the second period. It could have been longer if I didn't give up that darn goal late in the second."

Boucher, who now works as a broadcaster for NBC, holds the modern-day NHL records for most consecutive shutouts with five and the longest shutout streak at 332:01. Each record previously belonged to Gary Durnan, who had four consecutive shutouts and a shutout streak of 309:21 in 1949 while playing for the Montreal Canadiens."

Is someone working to confirm?

[Royle9]

I'm guessing between 1.8 and 2.25

2.75M seems high..

I don't wanna be a "my sources" guy but someone in the know told me on Tuesday it was 1-2 yr 2.75. This could've changed, but that's just what I had heard and figured I'd post it here so I can be a #Insiderrrrrr

Hopefully they both have jobs next year.

Calgary has to move on from Smith.

I hope Talbot is the answer.

I figured he and Rittich sign for $2.95M each so that sounds fine to me

Edmonton, where save percentages go to die.

I'd be curious to see the same comparison, but with Flames goaltending.

Alberta, where save percentages go to die?

Katz is probably keeping it in his attic as a memento and investment.

Probably would've made more money selling branded sweatpants instead of t-shirts.

What goalies have the Flames given up in the last two decades that even played after?

JS Giguerre
Brian Elliot?
Chad Johnson?
Curtis McElhinney?


I don't think the stats will show like they do for Edmonton. Those were just not very good goalies (outside of JS Giguerre) to begin with...

True, but Cam T.shirts is a nice play.

They’re stashed next to all the former Oilers. Kurri is up there stitching them together to make more banners.

That’s too much credit. The oilers have never had a logo that slick.
