TOP REGULAR SEASON TEAM – VALLEY WEST HAWKS After a season away, the Valley West Hawks sit atop the BCMML once again. Valley West held off a late push by Cariboo to finish two points ahead of the Cougars for first place, helped by a 3-0-1 mark against the 2017 TELUS Cup hosts. Jordan Sourdif paced a league-leading offence (Valley West netted 214 goals, 25 more than Cariboo), racking up 71 points (22G 49A) to earn top spot in BCMML scoring, while Nolan Krogfoss (32-36—68) and Max Mohagen (16-51—67) finished third and fourth, respectively. Josh Dias was a rock on the back-end, topping the league in goals-against average (2.27) and co-leading in wins (23); the Hawks allowed just 106 goals, easily the best mark in the BCMML.
