Laurent Brossoit News
Brossoit allowed four goals on 38 shots in the Jets loss to the Oilers on January 24th. Tuesday will be his third start of the season and he's looking for better results than his first two outings--he allowed a combined seven goals on 79 shots (.911 SV%). He draws a tough assignment vs. a Flames team that is 4-3-1 while averaging 2.88 goals per game through eight games.
Brossoit did not enjoy the same level of success in year two with the Jets but was solid enough to stay on as Connor Hellebuyck's backup for at least one more year. Brossoit went 6-7-1 with a 3.28 GAA and .895 SV% in 2020 and is now 19-13-3 with a 2.87 GAA and . 912 SV% in 40 career games (34 starts) with the Jets.
Brossoit stopped 29 of 30 shots in the Jets’ win in Ottawa last Thursday. Brossoit has been terrific in his last two starts, going 2-0-0 while stopping 54 of the 57 shots (.947 SV%) that he has faced. Tonight he faces a Capitals team that has gone 2-4-1 while averaging 3.43 goals for and 4.29 goals against in their last seven home games.
Brossoit allowed two goals on 25 shots in the Jets loss to the Bruins on January 31st. Brossoit has gone 1-3-0 with a 3.76 GAA and .875 SV% on home-ice this season and gets set to face an Ottawa team that has lost eight of their last nine road games (1-4-4).
Brossoit allowed four goals on 29 shots in the Jets loss in Columbus on January 22nd. Brossoit has not registered a win since December 10th, going 0-3-0 with a 4.73 GAA and .867 SV% in six games (three starts) since then. Tonight he faces a Bruins team that has gone 5-3-2 while scoring 3.10 goals per game in their last 10 games.
Brossoit allowed two goals on 14 shots after replacing Connor Hellebuyck in the Jets' 7-1 loss to the Lightning last Friday. Brossoit has not recorded a win since December 10th, going 0-2-0 while allowing 15 goals on 99 shots (.868 SV%) in his last five appearances (two starts). Tonight he faces a Blue Jackets team on a five-game winning streak, outscoring their opponents 16-to-3.
Brossoit allowed one goal on 11 shots in a relief effort in the Jets loss to Toronto last Thursday. With Connor Hellebuyck going last night in Toronto, Brossoit draws the unenviable task of starting in Boston tonight. The 26-year-old is 3-2-0 with a 3.04 GAA and .904 SV% on the road and the Bruins are 14-2-9 in Boston, so look elsewhere tonight.
Brossoit allowed two goals on 34 shots in the Jets loss in Los Angeles on November 30th. The Jets have a home-and-home with the NHL's worst team on Tuesday/Thursday so they will use this opportunity to get both goalies a start--with Brossoit going on home-ice and Connor Hellebuyck starting in his home state. The 26-year-old has gone 3-3-0 with a 3.65 GAA and .885 SV% on the season but is a solid spot-start option vs. a Red Wings team that has lost 11 in a row.
Brossoit allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Jets loss to the Blue Jackets last Saturday. The loss snapped a brief two-game winning streak for Brossoit, who comes into Saturday at 3-1-0 with a. 3.25 GAA and .895 SV% on the road. The Kings are scoring 3.14 goals per game on home-ice this season, so Brossoit doesn't have a lot of spot-start intrigue tonight.
