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 Red Deer Rebels visit Cranbrook on the heels of a 3-2 come-from-behind shootout victory in Lethbridge January 3. The Rebels trailed 2-0 after the first period, but stormed back to force extra time before Brett Cote’s goal in the sixth round of the shootout gave Red Deer the victory. Miles Warkentine and Taylor Cooper scored for the Hurricanes in the first period, but the Rebels closed the gap to 2-1 late in period two on a goal from Nelson Nogier. Presten Kopeck put home the game-tying goal with 1:51 remaining in the third period. Taz Burman made 31 saves to record the victory for Red Deer, while Stuart Skinner stopped 36 of 38 shots for Lethbridge.

LAST MEETING: Tonight marks the fifth of seven meetings between the Rebels and Kootenay ICE and second in as many weeks. The ICE scored three second-period goals en route to a 5-3 victory January 2 at Enmax Centrium, evening the season series at two games apiece in the process. Jon Martin led the Kootenay attack with a pair of goals including the game-winner, while Wyatt Hoflin made 38 saves in goal for the ICE. Brooks Maxwell scored twice for Red Deer.
