Former AAA Star hopes to build on first pro season
Wilkie native Brody Hoffman said his first season as a professional hockey player was a learning experience.
Hoffman spent all of the 2015-16 season with the ECHL’s Quad City Mallards, who were swept in the first round of the playoffs by the Missouri Mavericks over the weekend.
“Right from training camp I was able to see how pros carry themselves and see why they’re as good as they are. I hope moving forward I can continue to improve,” Hoffman said.
Hoffman, a goaltender, played in 40 games during the regular season for the Mallards, posting a 19-17-1 record with a 2.78 goals against average and a .911 save percentage. He then started three of the four playoff games with a 3.40 GAA and .884 save percentage.
