Brossoit will make his season debut in Calgary.

Brossoit, 23, was a sixth round pick of the Flames in 2011 and tonight he will face the team that drafted him for the first time. Brossoit has gone 9-8-0 with a 2.67 GAA and .908 SV% in 21 games with Bakersfield (AHL) this season. Tonight will be his seventh career NHL start—he’s gone 0-5-1 with a 3.34 GAA and .896 SV% in the first six.

Brossoit surrendered three goals on 25 shots in the Oilers loss to the Avalanche last Sunday. Brossoit has gone 0-3-1 with a 3.23 GAA and .882 SV% in four starts this season. Brossoit’s NHL career has not gotten off on the best foot and he draws a difficult matchup in Los Angeles, where the Kings are 23-11-2 this season.
