Calgary Flames goalie Chad Johnson inducted into Brooks Bandits Wall of Fame
Brooks, AB – 1,629 Brooks Bandits fans came out Friday night to the Centennial Regional Arena to honour one of the club’s most accomplished alumni, current Calgary Flames goalie Chad Johnson.
“It’s special,” said Johnson shortly after becoming the first Smith Group Brooks Bandits Wall of Fame inductee. “It’s humbling, there’s a lot of emotions running through my body right now.”
The 6’3″ netminder spent two seasons with the AJHL team from 2003-2005, backstopping the Bandits to their first-ever playoff appearance in the 2004/05 campaign. He also still holds the franchise record for save percentage with the .923 mark he set en route to the Bandits first postseason.
