Sioux City snapped a four-game losing skid against the Buccaneers on November 8th... said captain Goodwin after his three-point night: "We know if we want to be successful this season, we have to play more gritty than we were in the last 10 games. Maybe not this many fights, but we liked it and we felt it gave us the edge tonight. The fights are huge for momentum, especially when you get them from guys like (Conor) Andrle, (Charlie) Ackerman, guys who don’t expect it, but they’re momentum changers for us..." unfortunately, the Muskies resumed losing immediately afterwards, and are now a league-worst 3-9-3.

While Kerr was quiet statistically at the Tier 1 showcase in Troy, MI and in a stand-alone game with the Jr. Flyers, he still had quite a busy two-week period... Holy Ghost, his prep school, opened its season last Monday, with Kerr scoring a goal in a rout of Council Rock North... he was also called up to the USHL's Tri-City Storm - the team that picked Kerr seventh overall in this year's USHL Futures Draft - and will get a quick look from the brass in Kearney, NE for the next Commit Cycle period (part of "the brass," incidentally, is PSU freshman Kenny Brooks' father Kirk, who owns the Storm).

After missing the first two games of this Commit Cycle period while helping Team USA to the gold medal at the World Junior A Challenge, McAdam was rudely welcomed back to the USHL by the Des Moines Buccaneers... even so, he remains among the league's top five in most major goaltending categories, including his circuit-topping .933 save percentage.

Pellah's 17 points this season are tied for third best among BCHL blueliners.

It's unknown why Saar missed four consecutive games (before the game on Saturday, he last played on November 3rd), but whatever the reason, at least he's back in... while the Bucs aren't exactly thrusting themselves into the USHL contender conversation, they are performing much better than projected - their 7-9-1 record is good enough for the Western Conference's final playoff spot at the moment.

Chilliwack's torrid pace at the moment (the Chiefs are on a six-game winning streak) has the team sitting at a BCHL-best 16-5-2... Thompson, for his part, had an interesting pair of games over this past weekend... on Friday, he was named third star of the win over Surrey thanks largely to his shorthanded game-winning goal... the next day, he registered a Gordie Howe Hat Trick in the blowout of Coquitlam.

Petersen was named one of 20 Twin Cities-area players to watch this season by the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

One of this season's major storylines, at least in terms of PSU's commits, will be whether Nielsen's Edina Hornets can topple Minnetonka and win a first state championship on the girls side (Edina is a legendary school in boys hockey, with 10 Minnesota titles)... while it's not entirely accurate to say Nielsen held serve thanks to the tie with Lakeville South, her statistical output was certainly worthy of her rivals and future teammates.
