The Portland Winterhawks are
just into the second half of the
season and are already on their
quest for a championship.
Becoming the first team in the
league to reach the 30-win mark
on the season, the Hawks are look
ing forward to the
next couple
of
months.
With post-sea
son play just two
months away, the
Hawks are on a pace
to have a less-goals-
against average than
any other team in the
league. Along with
this distinction, they
currently have the
league’s top scorer in
c e n t e r T o d d
Robinson and are set
to have five representatives in the
Ian. 22 All-Star Game in Spokane,
Wa.
Behind the solid play of
goaltender Chris Wickenheiser, the
dawks have posted a 20-3-2 record
in their last 25 games, going un-
)eaten in games played Nov. 16 to
Dec. 2L With the talent level of
this year’s team, the playoffs are
ieing greatly anticipated by play
as and fans alike.
“We want the Memorial Cup,”
Says Center Andrej Podkonicky.
The Memorial Cup is the high
est trophy for any junior hockey
club in the U.S. and Canada.
The Hawks will head into next
weekend when they play the
Kamloops Blazers on the road and
the Kelowna Rockets at home,
leading the second place Seattle
Thunderbirds by nine points. With
only 28 games left until the play
offs, and seven of those games
against their 1-5 ri
val Thunderbirds,
the next two
months are sure to
be very exciting for
our Winterhawks.
With all of the
team’s success this
season,
atten
dance is on the
rise, and the Me
morial Coliseum
and Rose Garden
are great places to
catch all the action.
One of the most
exciting fan events of the season
is coming up this Sunday, Jan. 19.
The second annual “Skills Chal
lenge” will be held in the Memo
rial Coliseum at 1 p.m.. The event
features player competitions such
as fastest skater, hardest shot, shot
accuracy and a goaltending shoot
out. You can also try your luck and
shoot on One of the Winterhawks
goaltenders.
Next home action is this Sat
urday night, Jan. 18, against the
Kelowna Rockets in the Memo
rial Coliseum. Game time is 7:30
p.m.
four of seven shooting, seven as
sists and six steals.
Jared Bullock averaged 10
points and eight rebounds, and
Brian Hay leads the team with 7.5
assists a game.
