Greetings from the WHL

A Welcome from the President

Welcome back to another exciting year of Kootenay ICE Hockey. The start of every hockey season always brings optimism and hope and the 2014-2015 campaign will be no different. Despite the turnover and cyclical nature of Major Junior Hockey our organization expects to make the playoffs every year.

Thanks in part to the quality scouting and coaching we have made the playoffs all 16 years we have been in Cranbrook, while finishing with a .500 or better record for a WHL record 15 consecutive seasons (both are the longest active streaks in the WHL).

Our organization has been very fortunate since moving to Cranbrook to enjoy an unparalleled amount of on ice success. With the core group of our players in the 19 and 20-year-old age groups, we expect them along with our new prospects to once again battle for contention in the very competitive Eastern Conference.

Our fans have come to expect a team that is hard working on the ice and ambassadors for Cranbrook and the entire East Kootenay region off the ice.

On behalf of the entire organization, welcome back and I hope you enjoy the game.

Jeff Chynoweth, President & Governor

TONIGHT’S OPPONENTLAST OUTING: The Medicine Hat Tigers visit the Kootenay ICE tonight fresh off a 4-2 victory at home to Red Deer yester-day. The Tigers opened the scoring 4:06 from the end of the first period on Cole Sanford’s 15th goal of the season, then padded their lead in the second period on markers from defensemen Ty Stanton and Tommy Vannelli. Rookie David Quenneville added a fourth Medicine Hat goal 3:57 into the third period before Presten Kopeck and Wyatt John scored for the Rebels in the final ten minutes of play. Marek Langhamer stopped 23 of 25 Red Deer shots to record the victory in goal for the Tigers.

LAST MEETING: Tonight marks the first meeting of the 2014-15 season, and first time the two clubs have faced each other since Game 7 of the 2014 Eastern Conference Semi-Final April 16 in Medicine Hat. Trevor Cox’s goal 11 seconds into the third period stood up as the winner as the Tigers recorded a 4-1 victory, eliminating the ICE from the post-season. In six regular-season meetings with Medicine Hat during the 2013-14 season, Kootenay held a 3-3-0-0 record, with all three wins coming at Western Financial Place.
