I doubt it, Murray was an RFA with 2 rings. Apples and oranges.

No issue with the NMC. Its the 7 year term that I didn't like.

Sometimes the Flames are capable of doing what needs to be done. I was actually expecting another half-measure stopgap like Holtby.

If the contract doesn’t end up being a howler I’m stoked.

I just pray it isnt 6 years and buyout proof
So you want to continue going through the dumpster bin for goalies rather than getting a proven legit #1 goalie that can solve the Flames problems for several years?

Schneider?
2.93
3.06
3.53

Those are his GAAs in the last 3 years.
Even his AHL numbers kinda stink.

I don’t mind NMC to the expansion draft. I’d like something less stringent afterwards.

That's why we worry. Do you expect markstrom to be a top goalie for another 3 seasons? That doesnt happen with many goalies l. Look at dubnyk. Markstrom is no Rask or price

Talbot
Holtby
Khudobin
Murray


Get this done or we'll have to give up assets for someone else or be stuck with Crawford/Smith/Greiss/Dell.

Sorry for being excited about the Flames signing the best goalie in the NHL last year, a rivals MVP no less.

If someone can't enjoy it because it may cost the Flames 1M more than they hoped (zomg one less fourth liner) it doesn't seem like much fun to be a fan like that.

What is the worst that happens? Flames might not win the cup? I have been through the worst, this is a big win for me and I am gonna enjoy it
