Mackenzie Skapski Update



As we mentioned on last night's broadcast I have receieved an update on Mackenzie Skapski.
He was selected by the ICE in the 3rd round of the 2009 Bantam Draft. The goalie was on the Fraser Valley team bus that got into a serious accident a few weeks ago.
It was reported that he suffered head injuries, had two plates and some screws surgically installed to repair damage and facilitate healing.
He says he hopes to return to the ice next week.
"Maybe start skating next week, U-17 tryouts start in March with zone camps around the province, followed by BC Cup in 100 Mile House in April.
Provincial camp is after that and then short list for Team Pacific and they play at the same time as world juniors, team pacific consists of ten players from British Columbia and ten players from Alberta.
As far as next year my goal is to do whatever i possibly can to earn a spot on the Kootenay Ice hockey club."

Brandon 6 Kootenay 5 OT Game #50

Cranbrook, BC – The Brandon Wheat Kings came back from a 5-3 deficit in a 6-5 overtime win over the Kootenay ICE in WHL action on Tuesday night.

The ICE opened the scoring on the powerplay as James Martin’s point shot beat the screened goalie along the ice on the glove side.
35 seconds later the Wheat Kings tied the game as defenseman Mark Schneider was wide open in the high slot and scored with a high shot that beat a screened goalie.
ICE regained a lead off a turnover in the Wheat Kings zone and Max Reinhart fed a wide open Matt Fraser who scored on a wrist shot.
Wheat Kings tied the game on a powerplay as the ICE blocked a shot but it went to a wide open Brayden Schenn who tallied with a wrist shot.
Ice regained the lead 3-2 as Drew Czerwonka won the puck behind the Brandon net and put in near the crease where Joe Antilla, from in close, wristed it in over the goalies’ shoulder.

In the second period the ICE got a 4-2 lead as Brayden McNabb came out of the penalty box and had a breakaway from the blueline and scored on a backhand deke.
Brandon changed goalies as Jacob DeSerres replaced Andrew Hayes.
Wheat Kings got back within a goal as Brodie Melnychuk’s point shot deflected off an ICE stick and went in the net in the top corner.
ICE made the game 5-3 on a powerplay as Hayden Rintoul’s cross ice pass went off Steele Boomer’s leg and into the net. Video replayed ruled a legal goal.
Video replayed played an impact on the Wheat Kings goal on the powerplay. There was a goal mouth scramble near the ICE crease and as play continued Dustin Sylvester was tripped on a possible breakaway and a penalty was called against the Wheat Kings. During the stoppage the official went to video replayed and ruled a goal for Brandon. Even though the penalty happened after the goal the penalty was still called. The goal was awarded to Aaron Lewadniuk with an assist to Brent Raedeke who was eventually in the penalty box.

In the 3rd period Brayden Schenn got his second of the game as he went coast to coast, dangled by 3 ICE players and squeezed a backhand shot the barely went in through the goalies leg.

In overtime the ICE hit a cross bar and had another shot go through the goalies legs but it died near the goal line.
The Wheat Kings got the game winner on a partial breakaway as Scott Glennie came in free and picked the top corner.

The ICE home winning streak was stopped at 8 games and Todd Mathews winning streak is done at a Franchise Record 11 games.

ICE scratches – Jagger Dirk & Elgin Pearce.

The crowd was the largest of the season at the Rec-Plex.

The ICE will host Prince Albert on Friday.

Kootenay @ Regina CANCELLED

The ICE game tonight in Regina has been cancelled because of road closures.
The new date has yet to be determined.
The ICE are in Regina in 2 weeks to play on Saturday Feb 6th.
There are no games scheduled on Sunday the 7th because it is Super Bowl Sunday.
The ICE and Pats could be forced to play as both teams schedules are pretty busy the rest of the season.
So it could be a Double Header weekend in Regina.
The weather heading west to Cranbrook is good enough for the club to return to Cranbrook tonight.
The club will host Brandon on Tuesday.
