FlamesNation Mailbag: Rittich and other future plans

How do the Flames handle their closest thing to a bonafide #1 goalie? What’s the strategy heading into trade deadline?

PGP asks:

Noah Hanifin is failing the eye test. How’s he doing actually?

Hanifin has been a bit of a disaster the last few games. He and Travis Hamonic have been caught making lazy giveaways or puck watching on some pretty ugly goals against. It’s not necessarily a new thing either; he had some disastrous moments earlier in the year that were seemingly jitters. He bounced back, but he’s having a rough stretch right now.
