A pair of Langley junior hockey players and one from Aldergrove have been named to the B.C. Hockey League’s top 50 list.
The selection format was done by online fan balloting over a six-week period with 10 players chosen for each decade.
Ryan Walter, who played for the Langley Lords from 1973-1975 was part of that decade’s top 10 list, while Langley Eagles’ Mark Recchi was on the 1980s list.
Recchi played for the Eagles in 1984-1985.
