Default Who do you WANT to be the Flames Starting Goalie Next Season [*NEW POLL 12·05·17]

I was unable to reset the poll properly in the old thread, so am hoping that this works.

Now that Bishop and Darling are off the market, please resubmit your vote for who you want to be the Flames starting goalie in 2017–18.

Again, this is not who you think it will be, but which of the listed goalies you would prefer.

as per Roof-Daddy's original post:

Absolutely without question this is the biggest off season question that needs to be answered IMO.

I've been pretty vocal about who I want, so I was just curious as to how many people feel the same way and which guy the majority of Flames fans want to see as our goalie next year.

1. Ryan Miller (UFA)
2. Ben Bishop (UFA)
3. Jonathan Bernier (UFA)
4. Steve Mason (UFA)
5. Brian Elliott (UFA)
6. Chad Johnson (UFA)
7. Scott Darling (UFA)
8. Mike Condon (UFA)
9. Philipp Grubauer (Trade)
10. Calvin Pickard (Trade)
11. Marc Andre-Fleury (Trade)
12. Jaroslav Halak (Trade)
13. Antti Raanta (Trade)
14. Cam Ward (Trade)
15. Joonis Korpisalo (Trade)
16. Mike Smith (Trade)
17. Jon Gillies
18. David Rittich
19. Peter Mrazek (Trade)
20. Micheal Neuvirth (Trade)

If the rumours of a guy like Schneider or Price maybe being available are true you swing for the fences. But I voted MAF

I think Mike Smith is going to be our goalie. Treliving is familiar with him and I see the Coyotes trading him.

Fleury right now tops my list of realistic goalies.

MAF. Step on/over Vegas to get him at this point.

I considered including them in the list, but I think they are unlikely options.

Can't really choose right now who I want.

I don't want to give up assets for an older goalie, and I'm really sure if any of the younger options are the real deal.

As for the UFA's, none are all that appealing to me now. Any one of them could come in and have a great season or two, but they could also just as easily crap the bed like Elliott did.

This time last year I would have picked Mrazek in a millisecond, but man he had a brutal year.

I'm going Raanta on this, but Grubauer would be good with me.

Don't really want MAF as he's as hot and cold as Elliott at times, but the two year deal would bother me if they're just wanting to bring in a new face (and if he gets a cup fans will eat the acquisition up).

I vote for Juuse Saros with Nashville. Unfortunately he isn't listed as a poll option so I'm putting my vote here.

I actually wouldn't be surprised to see Rinne available after the playoffs. Nashville has a great system in place and due to his age and salary, I could see them turning him over now. He didn't have the most impressive regular season, but has been lights out in the playoffs.

I picked Raanta because of familiarity. I don't know much about Grubauer, but there seems to be a lot of hype around him.

Someone fired up a Hornquist+Fleury package on HF. Pens fans want Brodie or Dougie. Fleury and Hagelin they want Bennett. Seriously get f***ed Pens fans

I voted Korpisalo this time. But I'm also open to a Lehtonen type as well. No way would I want Niemi as it sounds like they're buying him out
