The Calgary Flames are in a bit of a bind.
Heading into Friday's action, they're near the bottom of the NHL's standings and one of several reasons for that is they can't keep the puck out of their net. Through 10 games, they've allowed 40 goals - four per game, which is hardly a recipe for success.
Now, it's natural to explore some options to upgrade any part of the team that they can at this point, but Eric Duhatschek's suggestion on Sportsnet 960 The Fan's morning show yesterday scared the heck out of me. Duhatschek, a man I greatly respect, suggested something a bit out to left field: that the Flames chase Carolina Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward.
