A look at one player from each division that stood out during Week 9 of the 2024-25 WHL season.
Welcome to THN's "WHL Standouts From The Week" article. In this weekly column, we highlight one player from each division who impressed over the last week. Here is a look at the four standouts from week nine.
Jordan Keller- Kamloops Blazers
Jordan Keller was sensational over the past week for the Kamloops Blazers. The 2005-born forward scored four goals, including a hat trick, while racking up six points in three games. Now with 26 points in 22 games, Keller has been a big part of Kamloops' success early in 2024-25.
Ben Kindel- Calgary Hitmen
Ben Kindel continued his hot start to the season, recording seven points over four games this past week. The 2025 NHL Draft prospect has 28 points in 21 games and is slowly making his way up draft lists across the hockey world. The 17-year-old has a lot of potential and is showing he can be one of the most productive players in the WHL this season.
Carter Bear- Everett Silvertips
Another 2025 Draft prospect who is lighting it up this season is Carter Bear. The Everett Silvertips forward had five goals and six points in two games this week, which included a hat trick against the Seattle Thunderbirds. With 35 points in 20 games, Bear could finish the season with the highest point total of any WHL prospect eligible for the 2025 Draft.
Tomas Mrsic- Prince Albert Raiders
It was the Tomas Mrsic show in Prince Albert this week, as the St. Louis Blues prospect had seven points in two games. Mrsic scored a hat trick against the Tri-City Americans and followed it up with a four-point performance against the Edmonton Oil Kings. With 25 points in 16 games, Mrsic is starting to heat up, which is bad news for the rest of the East Division.
