<p>Yesterday, we <a href="https://flamesnation.ca/2022/08/10/report-flames-invite-josh-brook-to-camp-on-a-professional-try-out/">learned</a> the Calgary Flames have invited right-handed defenceman Josh Brook to their training camp this fall.</p>
<p>Today, the Calgary Wranglers announced they have signed Brook to an American Hockey League contract for the 2022–23 season.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Those two things aren&#8217;t mutually exclusive: Brook will still attend Flames camp in September with the goal of trying to earn an NHL deal for the upcoming season. If he doesn&#8217;t make the team, he&#8217;ll be able to report to the Wranglers.</p>

<p>&mdash; Calgary Wranglers (@AHLWranglers) <a href="https://twitter.com/AHLWranglers/status/1558137079502032896?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 12, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>Brook, 23, split the 2021–22 season between the AHL&#8217;s Laval Rocket and the ECHL&#8217;s Trois-Rivières Lions. The Montreal Canadiens originally selected Brook in the second round (No. 56 overall) of the 2017 NHL Draft.</p>
<p>In 106 career AHL games with the Rocket, Brook has scored six goals and 29 points. The 6&#8217;1&#8243;, 195-pound defender was a standout with the WHL&#8217;s Moose Jaw Warriors before turning pro with Laval at the end of the 2018–19 season.</p>
<p>Brook joins a crowded Wranglers defensive group that also figures to include Dennis Gilbert, Nicolas Meloche, Jérémie Poirier, Yan Kuznetsov, Nick DeSimone, Colton Poolman, Ilya Solovyov, Rhett Rhinehart, and Simon Lavigne.</p>
<p>Rhinehart, Lavigne, and Brook are the only members of that group signed to AHL-only contracts, although they could be converted to NHL deals at any time.</p>
<p>The Calgary Wranglers will make their debut at home against the Coachella Valley Firebirds on October 16, 2022.</p>
