Lieuwen Goalie of the Week

The WHL has nominated rookie Nathan Lieuwen of the Kootenay ICE for the ADT CHL Goaltender of the Week Award. Lieuwen posted a 2-0-0-1 record this past week with a shut-out, allowing just three goals on 68 shots for a 0.970 goals-against average and an outstanding .956 save percentage.
Lieuwen currently sits in 13th spot among all WHL goaltenders with a 2.87 goals-against average and was recently named as one of 15 WHL players to participate in the 2009 Home Hardware CHL/NHL Top Prospects game this January in Oshawa, Ontario.
