WHL's Silvertips, Chiefs, And Hitmen Round Out CHL Week 15 Power Rankings
Spokane goes on a run, Calgary stays hot, and Everett remains ruling the roost.
As week 15 comes to a close in the CHL, the three squads that made an appearance on the CHL's top 10 list return for yet another week.
Everett Silvertips (3 --> 2)
Would it really be anyone else? Collecting a point in each of their last 11 games, Everett stays atop the Western Hockey League. A major part of the 'Tips success is goaltender Jesse Sanche, who leads the league in goals against average (2.24) and save percentage (.915). Everett will truly be tested on Wednesday night when they take on the Spokane Chiefs in a clash of the titans.
Spokane Chiefs (10 --> 7)
Andrew Cristall and Berkly Catton. That's the post. Since Cristall joined the Chiefs over the WHL's trade deadline, the pair have combined for 31 points in four games. In addition, Shea Van Olm compliments that line beautifully and has made the trio one of, if not the most lethat unit in the WHL.
Calgary Hitmen (8 --> 8)
It's been hard to deny the success of the Hitmen lately, as they have catapulted to second place in the Eastern Conference, just one point behind the surging Medicine Hat Tigers. At the forefront of all this is Ben Kindel and Oliver Tulk, who were sporting matching 20+ game point streaks before having them broken at the hands of the aforementioned Tigers.
