Brossoit allowed just two goals on 70 shots in the final three games of the top ranked Oil Kings’ first round WHL Eastern Conference playoff series against the Kootenay Ice backstopping the defending champs to a 4-1 series victory.

Personally, I hope that he plays 30-40 games for the Utica Whatevers next season. He had a pretty alarming hiccup in the Memorial Cup last season, but he had a hell of a run to get there (WHL Playoff MVP).
Just to clarify, I'm not saying I want or expect Brossoit to play in the NHL next season. I would like to see him given a role of some prominence (so long that he earns it in training camp) on the AHL team.
