Busy weekend for regional KIJHL clubs
The Kimberley Dynamiters head into this weekend’s Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) play on top of the Eddie Mountain Division and league standings.
The Nitros’ 21 win, five losses, one tie and one overtime loss record (44 points) has them seven points ahead of second place Creston Valley Thunder Cats (37 points).
The Columbia Valley Rockies (12-12-3-2 – 29 points) are in third in the Eddie, 10 points up on Fernie Ghostriders (8-13-1-2 – 19 points), with five fewer games played.
The Golden Rockets continue to sputter and languish in last place in the division and league with a one win, 24 losses, one tie and two overtime losses record (five points).
Kimberley looks to keep rolling into the Christmas break, with two final games – both against the Rockies, winners of two straight.
