Dec 10 Recap, Preview & News

Its Dec 10, Ive missed some time recapping the league. So lets get you caught up, give you a preview of this weekend and other information across the NWJHL.

League catch up:

The Huskies lost their first game in regulation time at the hands of the Sexsmith Vipers. The Vipers lead in the game from start to finish while also outshooting the Huskies 33-31. 

Generally in the NWJHL by now you should have a good idea who will win each night. This is not the case this year, the league has gotten so much more competitive. If you want the win you need to show up and play 60 minutes for it.

Vipers Sage Joachim & Flyers Eric Dentinger lead the league in points at 38. Points by Defensmen are also tied, with Kings Jeremy Niven and Huskies Brandon Modde at 26 pts each. Huskies goalie Tyler McArthur leads the league with 11 wins while Kings netminder Cam Beson leads with a GAA of 1.54 and a SV% of .944
