Hockey News WHL Preview - Wheat Kings rank 3rd
9/11/2008 at 10:40 AM
I gleaned this off of another board...
The Hockey News publishes a WHL preview each year where they rank where they think WHL teams will finish this year. This year's was written by Rob Vanstone of Regina.
They rank the Wheat Kings 3rd behind Spokane and Kelowna. Spokane I can definitely understand. The defending champs are returning a lot of good players. We'll have to see how right they are on Kelowna come March. Lethbridge may also have a thing or two to say between now and then.. they're returning a lot of their core.
