Which Flames goalie prospect are you most excited about?
Fairly basic question. I've been interested in hearing CP's opinion on who they're most excited about among the Flames goaltending prospects. Yes, I know they're hard to project, but right now who excites you the most?
The interesting part of this question is that they each play in a different league, so I'll be interested to see how that factors into everyones' answer.
There are basically three goalie prospects in the system right now: Joni Ortio, Laurent Brossoit and Jon Gillies. I don't know if we can consider Karri Ramo a prospect, so for argument's sake, let's not include him.
Joni Ortio, HIFK Helsinki (21 years old):
2012-13 stats: 2.35 GAA (8th), 0.919 SV% (8th), 3 shutouts, 18-16-7.
Laurent Brossoit, Edmonton Oil Kings (19 years old):
2012-13 stats: 2.20 GAA (3rd), 0.921 SV% (4th), 2 shutouts, 22-6-5.
Jon Gillies, Providence College Friars (19 years old):
2012-13 stats: 2.20 GAA (3rd), 0.926 SV% (1st), 3 shutouts, 10-8-3
