Matt Keetley, Gord Baldwin
Flames fans, Matt Keetley fans, and Gord Baldwin fans will be pleased at this bit of News. Their are fan reports over on the HF boards saying both of them played extremely well during the flames development camp taking place this week.

Matt Keetley has apparently played pretty phenomenal during the camp and has stood out. Flames Backup Curtis McElhinney has a 1 way contract this year with the flames. Which means Keetley will be battling Leland Irving for the #1 spot in Abbotsford this year.
