CHL news


The balance of the CHL has shifted west as the WHL has placed 4 teams in the CHL's top ten rankings. Calgary leads the way at #2 after leapfrogging the Vancouver Giants. Joining the Hitmen, Giants and Saskatoon Blades are the Brandon Wheat Kings. Brandon sneaks in at #10 thanks to 9 wins in their past 10 games. The official release can be found here. While I'm glad to see my hometown getting some recognition, I wonder how Brandon gets in this week, while Spokane couldn't crack the top ten a few weeks ago when they were perfect in 11 games?

Other CHL news, on the player of the week and goaltender of the week.

as we discussed last season, the CHL rankings are often more a cause for confusion than celebration
