Here's a good story on Olivier Roy:
http://www.calgaryherald.com/sports/...121/story.html
When he first saw he was getting a call from MacTavish, he thought he was getting called up to the Oilers. Imagine his shock when he found out that not only had he been traded, but the Flames were sending him to Alaska. After a rocky start with 4 losses in his first 5 games, he has now won 5 of his last 6.
It would be nice if Burke could move MacDonald and clear some room for Roy in Abbotsford (although, I think he likely ends up somewhere else next season, assuming Gillies turns pro).
In other ECHL news, the Oilers sent Brossoit down to Bakersfield on Wednesday. He got a shutout in his first game back in the ECHL, and now has a shutout in 3 straight ECHL games. The first two shutouts were against Bakersfield when he was in Alaska. Brossoit has struggled in the AHL so far this season, putting up a 2-4 record and three straight losses with OKC before the demotion.
