Both of these goaltenders are finished. If Ian Clark couldn't salvage Holtby he's not likely going to perform better in Calgary or anywhere else. Jones is one of the worst goaltenders in the NHL.

Could see Jones go to Vegas now. They need a cheap backup and it wouldn’t move Jones to far from the Bay Area.

He also played for years for DeBoer.

Wow... Holtby crashed hard after leaving Washington and winning the cup, has he lost his confidence after losing his starter job in Washington. Or is it because his body just can't handle the workload anymore. I'd take either goalie as backup to markstrom on a cheap deal of course through

You can argue he played a role in DeBoer getting fired.

Lots of goalies on the free agency carousel. However, lots of teams needing one as well.
Should be able to get a good backup for cheap, as long as they time the market well.

I don't think I'd mind Holtby, to be honest, but for sure the bigger takeaway here is that there are going to be a lot of cheap and decent back-up options for the Flames. Great news if the team doesn't need to allocate a lot of cap to that position.

Apparently a lot of teams were interested in Holtby, but they told the Canucks to retain 1.5 million or they'd just sign him after they bought him out.
Here we are!

It actually seems crazy that one game against Vegas literally broke Jones mentally to the point where he's been horrible since then.
He was actually a really good goalie up to that point.

If I caught it right, Holtby to Dallas and Jones to Philly (as per Fan 960 just now).
