    A night after getting blown out by provincial rival Vancouver, the Kelowna Rockets opened up a can of their own in Saturday’s 8-1 win over Prince George.

(Or perhaps I’m just getting a little cocky after nailing the Adam and Fienhage picks this summer.) Whatever the case, let’s put our forecasting cap on and see what the…

  • 9/26 Recap: Schiestel gets a Gordie

    All junior prospects but one (Tyler Myers) were returned to their clubs this week, and the result is the first full slate of Friday action in the CHL.
