Greetings from the WHL

A Welcome from the President

Welcome back to another exciting year of Kootenay ICE Hockey. The start of every hockey season always brings optimism and hope and the 2014-2015 campaign will be no different. Despite the turnover and cyclical nature of Major Junior Hockey our organization expects to make the playoffs every year.

Thanks in part to the quality scouting and coaching we have made the playoffs all 16 years we have been in Cranbrook, while finishing with a .500 or better record for a WHL record 15 consecutive seasons (both are the longest active streaks in the WHL).

Our organization has been very fortunate since moving to Cranbrook to enjoy an unparalleled amount of on ice success. With the core group of our players in the 19 and 20-year-old age groups, we expect them along with our new prospects to once again battle for contention in the very competitive Eastern Conference.

Our fans have come to expect a team that is hard working on the ice and ambassadors for Cranbrook and the entire East Kootenay region off the ice.

On behalf of the entire organization, welcome back and I hope you enjoy the game.

Jeff Chynoweth, President & Governor

TONIGHT’S OPPONENTLAST OUTING: The Giants visit Western Financial Place tonight after being shutout in back to back games on the weekend. The Giants fell on home ice to Tri-City Friday before dropping a 1-0 decision in Kamloops Saturday. Matt Needham scored the game’s only goal at 16:35 of the second period. Connor Ingram made 36 saves to record the shutout for the Blazers, while Cranbrook native Payton Lee stopped 26 of 27 shots in goal for Vancouver.

LAST MEETING: Tonight marks the first game between the Giants and ICE since December 4, 2013 in Vancou-ver. The Giants took home a 3-2 decision over the ICE thanks in part to a 33-save effort from goaltender Jared Rathjen. Jackson Houck’s power-play goal 4:41 from the end of regulation time proved to be the game-win-ner, while Cain Franson and Travis McEvoy also tallied for Vancouver. Jon Martin and Austin Vetterl scored for Kootenay; Vetterl led the ICE with a goal and an assist in the game. Kootenay outshot the Giants 35-19.
