If goaltending costs us the season... Tre really needs to answer for it. Not saying fired, but this is on him right now. Anybody who wasn't delusional could see that Smith was a concern heading into the season, and he's just playing so bad.

It's a real shame I know nothing about goaltending because Ray f***ing Charles could see that Smith is playing like dogshit tonight

Less Ryan and Dube, more Bennett. Not a fan of the limited ice time for Benny this season so far.

Will we see Smith in the net for the 3rd period?

Probably not. Flames really need to start going after a 1B guy at least with what we've seen. Clearly management should've been more concerned during training camp, because man Smith is losing it.

The problem is there is not much he could do.

There wasn’t any decent goalies available this off-season that he could get.

The real mess up was getting Smith instead of Fleury or Bishop.

Not worried about Smith, he's a good vet and will flip the switch once the season starts

There were a bunch of 1B guys to go after as a backup option like Lehtonen and the crazy guy (forgetting his name right now). Hell, we could've gotten Pickard off wavers. Our fall back is Rittich and Gillies right now, and boy that kinda scares me.

Well everyone’s fears have come to life. Smiths poor play post injury, into a poor preseason and now poor regular season it looks like. The good news is we have our first pick this year.

I wanted Pickard over Rittich but if he is our starter because Smith continues to suck we are probably screwed anyways.
