MacAngus is the Pats' cardiac kid!

Hmmm, I think I may have stumbled across a topic for next week's WHL Insider newsletter. In case you missed it, the Regina Pats rode into Medicine Hat and knocked off the defending WHL champs 3-2 last night. Michael MacAngus scored the winning goal on the power play with only 5 seconds left in regulation time. Not a bad way to kick off the 6 game west coast swing!

MacAngus is developing a knack for scoring clutch goals. On Saturday night, he scored with 16 seconds left on the clock to tie the game against Edmonton. The Pats went on to edge the Oil Kings 3-2 in a shootout.

MacAngus now has 9 goals on the season, making him the 3rd leading sniper on the Pats. Forward Jordan Eberle leads the way with 19 goals, followed by defenceman Logan Pyett with 11.

Oh, the Pats have also cracked the CHL top ten for the first time this year. Regina checks in at #10. The top-ranked WHL team is the Vancouver Giants, at #4.

Pete - poor Reich is heading back to toon town, I think he might be fit for Molleken.

I noticed the Windsor Spits signed Reekie then went out and traded for Neuvirth, a star calibre goalie. It kinda looks like Reekie is one of those career back-ups.

Reekie's got to have the worst luck of any goalie I've seen. Now he's stuck in a 3 goalie situation in Windsor, including Neuvirth - who took his team to the Mem Cup last year!

As for Reich........whatever. Maybe he and Levi Lind can play on the same line next year - in the Highway Hockey League.
