I'm a big Oil Kings fan and go to a lot of their games and have watched Brossoit a great deal. In my view, he's not the best goalie on the team. Tristan Jarry is the best athlete and the best prospect. I think Jarry's numbers are better playing a backup role. He'll be the starter next season and has the potential to go in the second round, but third or fourth is more likely. I think LB went in the sixth, if I recall correctly.
Having said this, Brossoit is l,ights out these playoffs. He's big and his positional play is excellent. He's a good prospect but I think he'll never be more than a backup at the NHL level and his likely role is as an AHL goalie who has a (long) shot as an NHL backup. His teammate love him so he'll be a good guy in the room.
Watch Jarry, however. He's younger and will be better. He has NHL starter potential.

Yeah, it was him. Having re-read it though it sounds like a pretty sincere recommendation. Would much rather grab Jarry in the 3rd than Fucale in the 1st (if we really must grab a goalie this draft.)
