TOP REGULAR SEASON TEAM – WESTERN KINGS
The NLMMHL has a new regular-season champion for the first time in three seasons. The Western Kings dominated from start to finish, opening with an 18-game winning streak and finishing with a massive 24-point cushion on second-place St. John’s. The Kings topped the NLMMHL at both ends of the ice, scoring 163 goals in 32 games while allowing just 69 for an eye-popping +96 goal differential. Western skaters dotted the list of top scorers, with scoring champion Andrew Antle (27G 30A) the first of eight Kings in the top 20, while goaltender Lucas Park was No. 1 in wins (17), goals-against average (1.97), save percentage (.926) and shutouts (3).
