With due respect to lemelin and Edwards, until Vernon arrived it seemed like the flames just didn’t quite have enough to beat the oilers. He changed the dynamic in the rivalry and then of course was key in the 1986 series. I’ll never forget the joy of winning that series, and I do believe Vernon was the difference.

Easy pick here.



But as for greatest flames goalie. That is mikka kiprusoff.

He was also the difference in the 86 Blues series.

Someone mentioned this in the #29 thread- does anyone know why Vernon didn’t go back to #30 in his second stint here? Was it as simple as him having success with 29, especially in Detroit?
