1/14  at Lincoln              W 6-3  2   1   3   0 [box score]

Bailey was apparently upset about going pointless in a game where his team scored eight, so he answered by having a hand in half of Omaha's six the next day...his 16 goals are now tied for eighth best in the league and have helped the Lancers jump into first place in the Western Conference at 20-10-2.

The goal assisted by Brooks brought the Storm within 3-2 early in the third, but an entire period's worth of time to even things up was not enough before a Force empty netter clinched the weekend sweep.

1/15  at Trail                W 5-2  0   1   1   2 [box score]

Chilliwack snapped a five-game losing streak on Friday against Prince George in exciting fashion...Thompson's blast from the point on the power play tied the game at one through two periods, and two goals 22 seconds apart in the last three minutes of the game lifted the Chiefs to victory...coach Harvey Smyl had some nice words for Thompson late last month, saying that "he's just settling in to become a nasty player to play against with all kinds of ability."

Yanis was involved in sort of a bad news/good news scenario last week. The bad: his coach was fired, making Kevin Patrick the third USHL mid-season casualty - all of which have involved teams with Penn State recruits. The good: Here's Patrick's replacement...
