I can't see Brossoit starting out in the ECHL.
I don't think many teams, if any, start their top goalie prospects in that league. That's usually where you go if you start in the AHL and can't hack it.
I think Irving is done with the Flames organization. I don't think he's thought very highly of by our management, and vice versa. If he is done here, it will be interesting to see if he lands on his feet somewhere.
