Either way, Gillies or Parsons (maybe/probably both) pull the jersey on at some point this year.
Even then, that's more just circumstance of him being our only "verteran" AHL goalie. Doesn't really speak to his value as a prospect.

Also, he didn't play any games last year despite a few minor injuries to Smith and Rittich.

Dressing to be the backup is one thing, but I doubt he will get any starts unless Rittich or Talbot suffer a long term injury.
