CALGARY - There has been a revolving door of understudies to Miikka Kiprusoff in the Calgary Flames' dressing room over the past six years.
There was Brian Boucher and Curtis McElhinney, Jamie McLennan and Curtis Joseph, Vesa Toskala and, for one game, Matt Keetley.
Henrik Karlsson is hoping to hold onto the position a little longer than the rest.
Karlsson, at 6-foot-5 goaltender who sports the nickname The Calgary Tower, earned the right to spell Kiprusoff - which doesn't happen very often - and he's making the best of each and every opportunity.
