Yep, you are 100% right.

Abbotsford had some seriously good AHL goaltending. Taylor was really consistently good, and then Brust comes in and does this:

Quote:
Brust, a goalie for the Abbotsford Heat, broke Hall of Famer Johnny Bower's 55-year American Hockey League record for consecutive minutes played without allowing a goal. Bower's mark was 249 minutes, 51 seconds set in the 1957-58 season with the Cleveland Barons.
Brust now owns the mark after playing the first 18:11 of the Heat's game against the San Antonio Rampage on Saturday without giving up a goal.
He extended his scoreless streak to 268:17 before James Wright of San Antonio scored at 16:36 of the second period

Hopefully he catches fire and does the same thing during the tournament.
