After a scoreless first period, the Hitmen scored three second period markers to take a stranglehold on the game with the Rockets playing its fifth game in six nights.

Brooks Macek scored twice for Calgary while Cody Sylvester had a goal and an assist. The Rockets won five of six games on the Alberta road trip and improved to 23-10-1-1 at the WHL Christmas break.

The Rockets have won 12 straight games at Prospera Place Ahh well, all good things come to an end . With 143 GF we are sitting in second in our conference and second in the WHL ,and with 87 GA , second in conference , third in the league Edited December 17, 2012 by The Ratiocinator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevlach Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 What do you mean by this ? Btw i am an aussie , so i presume this may be a comment on the politics of junior hockey in canada . Every Wednesday the CHL releases their top 10 CHL teams and then three or four more honourable mention teams. Kinda the best teams in the league currently. Kelowna's been one of the hottest teams in the league for like 4 weeks now. They were 9-1-0 and 8-2-0 the last two times the CHL released the top 10, plus the set a franchise record for 12 straight wins at home, they have the 2nd best goals for and goals against next to Portland in the league and after Kamloops amazing start to the season Kelowna is 6 points back with 3 games in hand...and their are 4 teams from the WHL in the top 10 right now and Kelowna is just as good as any of them. Yet we keep getting overlooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucksfan555 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Lucky 13: Rockets Keep Rolling At Home December 27, 2012 Kelowna wins its 13th straight at Prospera Place with convincing 7-2 win over Kamloops. Up next in Vancouver on Friday before hosting Everett on Sunday Share Related Links Cap News: Rockets drub Kamloops for 13th straight win at home Castanet: Rockets streak hits lucky 13 Dec. 27, 2012 - Kelowna, BC The Kelowna Rockets extended its home winning streak to 13 games on Thursday night, returning from the Western Hockey League's Christmas break with a convincing 7-3 win over the Kamloops Blazers. After taking a 1-0 lead after the first period, the Rockets broke the game open with five goals in the second period en route to the win. Kelowna is now 14-2-0-0 at Prospera Place and 24-10-1-1 overall, good for third place in the WHL Western Conference. Check some photos from the game here Zach Franko scored twice and added three assists in a first-star performance while Ryan Olsen and JT Barnett also scored twice. Myles Bell also scored, with his team-leading 21st of the season while Jackson Whistle earned the win in net. "We've got great depth," said Rockets head coach Ryan Huska on the AM 1150 post game show. "We feel we have four lines that can roll and contrinbute on both ends of the ice. We like our defense and we have two good goaltenders." The Rockets are back in action on Friday night as the team travels to Vancouver for another WHL BC division rivalry game against the Giants. On Sunday the Rockets are back home to host the Everett Silvertips in a special 5 p.m. start. The game is a fundraiser for the Kelowna Food Bank and fans are asked to bring a non-perishable food item to fill the Pepsi Truck for the food bank. Thursday marked the Rockets first sellout of the season as 6,257 fans took in the win over Kamloops. There are tickets available for Sunday's game against Everett. (5 p.m.) Heh nice game Rockets.. +60 Goal differential now I read crap we are on fire.. wonder why Cooke wasnt dressed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyosama Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Can someone who is able to go to the games tell me how Ryan Olsen is looking? Is his 31 points in 33 games legit or is he feeding off of his linemates? What kind of style does he play? Consistency? I'm from Winnipeg and if he's playing at almost a PPG as a 6th round pick for the Jets just this past year, and he's doing it through his own play with the size that he has then that's pretty significant.

canucksfan555 Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 What happened to Cooke? I see its been Whistle and Morrisey in games.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevlach Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Lower body injury 3 or 4 games ago. Actually we were 4-0 on the Alberta road trip before Christmas and Cooke and Whistle got hurt and the Rockets had to play their back up back up in Calgary, though they lost he became the youngest goalie ever to play a WHL game. So still kind of a cool thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
