Turris Has Solid Weekend, Express Go 1-1

UW recruit Kyle Turris had a solid weekend in the BCHL, being named second star of the game in Burnaby's 2-1 win on Saturday, and third star of the game in Burnaby's loss yesterday. What's interesting is that Turris had no points on Saturday and was still named second star. I'm hopeful that's an indication of the attention he is receiving from other teams on the offensive end of the ice & that he works hard on defense and doing the little things that make a difference.

Turris has a total of five goals and two assists through four games. Ben Winnett is lighting up the BCHL with 20 points in his first seven games (impressive, even for a high scoring league!). Too bad he decided to be a Wolverine instead of a Badger next season.
