Kimberley picked up Ryan Piva last week, he had 4 points in Revy as did scoring sensation Brock Palmer... like they needed anymore firepower.
The Riders were trailing 2-1 after two then 3-1 about six minutes into the third vs Creston. They made it close when Spare Player who’s real name is Levi Young scored from a bad angle... it was a rocket of a shot. It’s not that hard to enter the players name on the esports website, I think the coaches call it attention to detail whenever they’re berating their players. Fernie is not the only team to miss that
In a nutshell, Creston was the better team in the first the Riders the second and in the third Creston wanted it more.
1/Nice to see former Rider Derek Green wearing an A
2/Carson Small had 2G
3/ CVT Kyle James showed flashes of brilliance, his brother was a star in the league a couple of years ago
4/Wingenbach and CVT Small were named players of the game
5/ Shots 40-39 Creston and 7 goals scored made it interesting
6/ Alaister Standen who we talked about last week did not play
7/ Dylan Defosse had an assist but missed on a couple of clear breakaways, could have changed some things...how does he get so open
8/Owen Titus scored as a forward but got put back on D. It may have been his first goal according to the website... but you can’t always believe what you see there
9/Creston loves playing here before the time change, they get home an hour earlier. The Riders are in Creston on Bill Ohlhausen time next Friday so it starts at 8:30, it is a scheduled Drive 99.1 Radio broadcast game

Round the League
Nelson beat Beaver Valley 3-1 in BV Friday, they are a premier team and play here in Fernie next month. BV is almost here next weekend...but they are not, they play in Elkford
Fernie local Nick Mitchell was playing in Grand Forks and just got traded to the Comox Glacier Kings. Former Creston Coach Jeff Dubois is in Comox and played him Saturday.
Castlegar’s Hunter Maximnuk (3) and Nelson’s Jaden Shumilak (2) were recently suspended for harassment of officials. They don’t keep the suspensions up for more than a few days so you have to keep checking. Makes it look like the cages have sanitized the game... but they haven’t... and they aren’t the first players suspended for harassing refs, thick mouth guards so they can’t talk are next...
It’s now official North Oak has lost 8 points. Read it here
This seems to happen every year and it makes the league look really amateurish. If you can’t trust the GM’s to check the Hockey Canada registration page then you have to hire a league registrar . Make it so nobody can put a player on the game sheet who isn’t carded properly. Or use the Hockey BC game sheets, then only properly carded players and coaches can be entered. Yes we hear the esports web page won’t support the Hockey BC game sheets, why do we love esports so much...
The Jr A Calgary Mustangs were rumoured to be moving to Cranbrook last summer but never were, they are moving to Blackfaulds Alberta read that here
