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 Kamloops Blazers visit Cranbrook tonight for the second-to-last game of a Central Division road trip. Kamloops collected its first victory of the away swing Sunday, defeating the Hurricanes 4-2 in Lethbridge thanks in part to a three-goal outburst in the final 1:02 of the first period. Former ICE forward Collin Shirley scored goals 46 seconds apart, the second holding up as the game-winner Sunday. Blazers leading scorer Cole Ully and defenseman Ryan Rehill also tal-lied, while goaltender Connor Ingram stopped 18 shots to record the victory in goal. Kamloops converted on two of its four power-play opportunities. Zane Jones had both goals for Lethbridge.

LAST MEETING: Tonight marks the only meeting of the regular season between the Blazers and Kootenay ICE, and first en-counter since a 7-3 Kootenay win December 6, 2013 in Kamloops. Former Blazer Tim Bozon marked his return to Interior Savings Centre with a four-point night (two goals, two assists), while Luke Philp put home the eventual game-winner at 14:29 of the second period. Jaedon Descheneau had a pair of goals for the ICE, while Matt Alfaro and Zak Zborosky also scored. Josh Connolly, Cole Ully and Eric Krienke tallied for Kamloops. Goaltender Wyatt Hoflin made 30 saves in picking up the victory for the ICE. Taran Kozun stopped 15 shots before being replaced by Cole Kehler late in the second period.
