CALGARY, Alberta (January 19, 2015) – The Portage Terriers of the MJHL continue to be the country’s top team with an astounding 42-2-2 record and a .935 winning percentage. This past week saw several impressive winning streaks extended. The Spruce Grove Saints of the AJHL have twelve wins in a row, while the Fort Frances Lakers of the SIJHL, and the Trenton Golden Hawks (OJHL) each have fashioned ten-game winning streaks.

The Penticton Vees are still on top of the Interior Division in the BCHL, but are being chased by the Vernon Vipers. The Merritt Centennials have re-discovered their mojo and posted victories this past week over the Vees and the Nanaimo Clippers. Meanwhile in Alberta, the Saints have a massive 19-point lead in the Viterra AJHL North Division, while the Camrose Kodiaks and Brooks Bandits are in a dogfight for the South Division’s lead.

The Melfort Mustangs and the Kindersley Klippers have emerged as the powers in the SJHL, while in the MJHL, the Steinbach Pistons and the Winnipeg Blues are battling for second place overall. The Fort Frances Lakers have a firm grip on the SIJHL standings, while the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League has the Kirkland Lake Gold Miners virtually deadlocked with the Soo Thunderbirds for first place, with the Gold Miners having one more regulation victory than the Thunderbirds.

By virtue of their long winning streak, the Trenton Golden Hawks are now on top of the overall standings in the OJHL, just a single point ahead of the Aurora Tigers.
