Calgary’s troublesome goaltending situation just got an awful lot worse.
Karri Ramo, who leads the team with 33 starts this year, has been ruled out for the remainder of the campaign with a torn ACL, GM Brad Treliving confirmed on Wednesday.
Ramo suffered the injury last Thursday in an eventual 6-5 shootout win over San Jose. Late in the third period, Mark Giordano tripped Joonas Donskoi and sent the Sharks forward crashing into Ramo. The veteran netminder stayed down for a while before requiring help off the ice, and was immediately replaced by Jonas Hiller.
