Hopefully he gets the chance he is looking for, he’s been a good Flame
Lets not fool ourselves, Wolf was clearly better.

The "outside of/excluding" arguments are always silly.

Vladar had a nice stretch run. Prior to that he was replaceable. A good Flame though, I agree.

Makes a lot of sense for both parties.

Philly needs G, and this is a huge opportunity for Vladdy.

Happy for him.

I'd say he was looking for a starter opportunity.

He ain't getting that in Calgary.

Dude. No. Flat out no.

Chicago was awful. SJ was awful. Wolf got all 7 starts and Vladar got none. Wolf went 7-0

It is no coincidence that Wolf got all of those starts

I am excited for Wolf, he looks like he is going to be great

But there is 100 percent merit in the fact that you have better chance of performing well against lesser competition

The data is crystal clear

Yeah, because he wants to start and that wasnt happening here.

I wish him the best, he was a good player and solid Flame and I hope he does well.

But...Philly is a notorious Goalie Graveyard.

I'm really happy that he is going to get a real opportunity to play more. I think most fans here really appreciated him, but for some reason there were also a few that hated on him seemingly no reason.

Figuratively and literally.

Super happy for Vladar at the contract and opportunity. Hoping he turns this into a long term starting role. Probably my favorite backup of the Flames since.... Noodles?

Tochett as coach will improve his stats, he’ll have a team dedicated to defending in front of him

Vladar was a great teammate for the guys for four seasons, he never complained once even know it seemed he was the Rodney Dangerfield of goalies.

Good luck Dan.

Great! Good for Vladar! And lets be honest, for a guy like Vader $3.3 x 2 is no small cheese! Plus if he does well hes young enough to maybe get another shot!

He seems like a great teammate and a nice guy however, being the eternal optimist that I am...Flames backups moving on has not historically gone 'Hot Awesome.'

I would have been fine if the Flames had signed that deal but not heart broken he is moving on either.

Best of luck Dan!
