Wolverines @ Ghostriders
01/30/2010




      After a tentative start this game turned into a thrilling overtime shocker hilighted by a terrific comeback and a trio of dazzling Wolverine goals. The broadcast team of Ryan, John, and Tracey have the action covered from start to finish. Make sure you catch this one for sure!





Game Of The Week

      Much has been made about the tightness of the "B" division playoff race, and with good reason. Heading into this week's action, three points is all that is seperating first place and missing the playoffs. The team on the outside looking in at the moment is the South Fraser Stingrays who sit one point back of the Wolverines for the final spot. To make matters worse the Rays have a difficult schedule down the stretch starting with the B.C. Black Aces who are suddenly surging.

      After a brief swoon that saw them drop a pair of tough losses sandwiched around the winter break, the Black Aces are back on top of their game having collected impressive wins in each of their last three games. Leading the way has been freshman goaltender Cristian Campeanu. He has allowed just 5 goals over the course of those three wins and has now dropped his season numbers to a stellar 2.91 goals-against-average. Only the "A" div's Justin Faykosh has a lower GAA and nobody has a higher save percentage than Cristian's .886. The Black Aces feature scoring by commitee with several players in the hunt for the team scoring lead. The speedy Kevin Irwin currently sits atop the chart with 14 points in 10 games. There is a trio of Aces tied at 13 points including Jeremy Skinner whose 7 goals lead the team. He is a highly effective offensive defenseman who will be a top contender for the division's top defenseman award. Former goaltender-turned-scoring-threat, Corey Albino is also in the mix at 13 points as is the go-to offensive weapon for the team the past few seasons, Paul Bennett. For the Aces it is all about the team concept and they are not afraid to share the minutes around with a full bench, eventually wearing down the competition as was the case last week against the Cougars in the 5-2 victory.

      A lot of people have been keeping a close eye on the Rays this season in hopes they can finally shed the tag as a pretender and make the playoffs for the first time in years. A couple of dropped games recently were all it took to push them to the outside in a divisionl race that can only be described as "too close to call". First liners Jim Davis and Trent Plul picked up the scoring again last game with four points each in a routine 8-3 victory over the struggling Blue Devils. Davis and Plul continue to stay in the top five of "B" scoring with 25 and 23 points respectively. Ex-Ghostrider Jay Albanese was quickly snapped up by the Stingrays upon being granted his release from his former team and picked up the win in the Blue Devils game. The team now feels they have a couple of capable goalies they can rely on with Rob Kahle also having performed effectively this season. Kyle peters is another goal scoring threat with the team and he, Jay Heer, and the recently signed Kevin Morash must continue to deliver the secondary scoring this team needs down the stretch to be successful. Blueliner Sukh Sandhu is having one of his strongest seasons in quite a while, and must continue to do so as the team will likely be without the services of veteran Paul Cardillo for the duration due to work committments. The Black Aces have made easy work of the Stingrays already twice this season with 8-2 and 7-4 victories to their credit. The Stingrays will have to reverse that trend this weekend if they want to punch their postseason ticket.

      Hello all of you NWBHL fans. It looks as though we had another great weekend of NWBHL action again this Saturday night. And with all of the action come to a close for another week it means that it is now time for another edition of the HPOTW. This week’s HPOTW is one of the most consistent scorers in the ultra competitive B division. This week’s winner is none other than Andy Hundhal of the of the surging West Coast Wolverines. Andy had an unbelievable night on Saturday, scoring one goal and adding three assists for a four point night to push the Wolverines winning streak to five straight games, making the Wolverines the hottest team in the B division right now. Andy had a bit of a slow start in Saturday nights game, being held off of the score sheet until the thirteen minute mark of the second half when he scored shorthanded to start the comeback for the Wolverines and bring the score to four to three in favor of the B division leading Vancity Ghostriders. Andy then helped to set up fellow Wolverine Harminder Rai to put the score at five to four for the Ghostriders with just under four minutes left in the game. Three minutes later Andy set up Ryan Finley for his second goal of the evening to tie the game at five apiece and push the game into overtime. Half way through the overtime period Andy completed his amazing night with his third helper of the evening when he set up Harminder Rai for his second goal of the evening and overtime winner to keep the Wolverines win streak alive as the Wolverines try to claw their way to the top of the B division and go for a Championship in only their second season. And that is why Andy Hundhal of the West Coast Wolverines is this week’s HPOTW. Congratulations go out to Andy for receiving this week’s honor.
