Karri Ramo out for season with torn ACL

Brad Treliving announced this morning that the Flames' #1 goaltender Karri Ramo would be out for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL and meniscus damage in his left knee suffered in last Thursday's 6-5 victory over the San Jose Sharks. He will require major knee surgery before being able to play again in the NHL.

When Ramo had to be helped off the ice by two skaters, you had to fear the worst, both for the team and the player. His roller-coaster of a season took him to the waiver wire, the AHL, back to the top of the Flames' depth chart, and now here.
