When I saw the thread title I thought it was a done deal, but it’s not. Fake news.

Yup I thought the same!

He's one of the rare goalies that's worse than what we have. And he's friggin $6.4m. And injured all the time.

Lets get Georgiev while we're at it

Thread title had me thinking that we actually did this and finally got rid of Skinner. Disappointed.

Blackwood please.

Yeah, his cost and play is very concerning, so I wouldn't give up much for him, but I trust he has a higher level he can play on a team that's not complete trash. Remember Dallas Eakins coached that team for much of that time and Remember Dallas Eakins lol.

I mean his play went down when Anahiem started to suck no?

No one wants Gibson at full cap hit but at 50% he’s 600k more than Skinner.

If Gibson isn't an option (and I expect him to go to Carolina), who are? Blackwood has less of history than Gibson and he's hurt as (if not more) often.

So who are getting. I'm not trying to be argumentative, who do you want the team to get/try, because they need someone else?

Markstrom was still very good on a poor Flames team, Gibson is just poor on a poor team.

because the flames have been bad as the ducks… are you being serious?

Again, it's not comparable (he also really wasn't for chunk which is why the Flames were bad), only one of these 2 teams was coached by Dallas Eakins for multiple years. Eakins might be the worst NHL coach ever.
