Player to watch from Kelowna: Shane McColgan. Shane has scored in 12 of his last 14 games, and currently sits in the 32nd spot in the WHL scoring race. (19 points in 16 games)
Player to watch from Red Deer: Matt Dumba. MyNHLDraft.com has Dumba picked to go 5th overall in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft in Pittsburgh, while International Scouting Services has him pegged at #6 overall. Matt won the Jim Piggot Memorial Trophy as the WHL's 2010/2011 Rookie of the Year. Last year he had 26 points in 62 games, and this year he's on pace to come near the 60 point plateau.
Other interesting notes: Former Kelowna Rocket Aaron Borejko is one of three twenty year olds on the Red Deer Rebels roster. Josh Cowen (another overager) is the only BC-born player on the Red Deer Rebels. (Salmon Arm)
