But it doesn’t make sense, the night before the aforementioned BV Hawks only managed to tie the visiting Golden Rockets 3-3 and last week the Riders won 4-2 in Golden so what gives... answer- there is no such thing as A² plus B² equaling anything of value in hockey, or, if you ask me, in life either. I just learned how to put the little² above a letter so I wanted to use it.
Jordon Kromm was the Riders top scorer last year, he scored two in BV, his 5th and 6th keeping himself at an even point a game.
New forward Alaister Standen who was in Melford (SJHL) and I think was a AAA midget player last year in Okotoks also scored in BV and had one against Summerland. He’s for real an upgrade and worthy of keeping an eye on. He seems to have some chemistry with Seamus Kieth who has had points in his last 4 games but missed a couple with an injury.
Gavin Lawrie who the Riders had to do circus acts to reacquire from Creston in September scored 3 vs Summerland, had an assist in BV and has 6 points in his last 3 games.
Ethan Fitzgerald wears #1 and seems to be the Riders #1 got first KIJHL shutout Friday but was in net in BV the next night. Shutouts are hard to get... you can’t daydream, some of us would never get one.
In the things I’d like to see department... Summerland’s Ethan Grover who wore #14 teamed up with the Rider’s Greg Susinski that pairing would strike fear in a few KD jets with big hands.
Round the League
Creston will be here in Fernie next week for a big, well as big as it gets in October anyway, divisional game . They lost 5-4 to Kimberley Friday when big hands Brock Palmer scored in OT... his 4th point his line mate Jett Saharchuk had 3A
In Revelstoke the Chase Chiefs' Vince Benedetto faced 61 shots and got the 3-2 OT win. Breckin Erichuk scored the overtime GW on the power play after the Griz took an OT spearing penalty. Hockey gods speak sometimes.
Loclyn Kabatoff who I think led the KI in PIM with 211 last year is back at it leading the way with a 12 game suspension for the physical abuse of an official. I didn’t see the video but they need to protect the refs. A far cry from Zach Baba
The Nelson Leafs are here in November and have won 7 in a row. They just got Shawn Campbell (99) back, he has 9 goals in 5 games. We get to see the NL twice in November.
The Rockies are on a 3 game win streak and back in the race for the final playoff spot, they won in 100 and Kamloops this weekend. They make their first appearance in Fernie in November.
The North Okanagan Knights are the first team to lose points for using an ineligible player. But it may not be final. I most certainly have an opinion on that but lets find out if it’s for sure first.
I have had a few people ask me if I knew where Tyler Palmer was playing this season. He is with the Northern Alberta Extreme Elite 15’s. They attract some great players, last year the Extreme had Matt Savoie he was drafted 1st overall in the WHL bantam draft by the former Cranbrook Ice who are in Winnipeg now. Have a great season Tyler... wouldn’t it be nice to have a Fernie kid in the lineup for a change
