If any of you have been following the Kootenay Ice this post-season, this kid has been a beast through two rounds. He has a 1.96 GAA, .930 SV%, and has posted two shutouts.
However, he is a little inconsistent, which could be the reason he didn't get drafted last offseason. It wouldn't hurt to bring him in as a 3rd goaltender who could be on an ATO. Hey, if he doesn't work out just send him to Utah.
BTW, the Flames should probably get another goalie through the draft this season. Our only goalies in the system right now are Kipper, CT, Irving, Keetley, and Ortio.

A little high up on the scouting order to fall too low, but I think overager (3rd year) Magnus Hellberg could be given a shot. Outstanding numbers in a 2nd tier league (.935 sv %, at one point he has .981% in 3 games) and creates his own eclipses at 6 ft 5 in.
