Selkirk Saints alternate captain Dylan Smith has been named the BCIHL player of the week.

The Selkirk College Men’s Hockey program is pleased to announce that Saints defenceman Dylan Smith has been named the British Columbia Intercollegiate Hockey League’s Player of the Week for the week ending October 21st.

 

 

 

Smith’s offensive production and playmaking ability helped lead the

Saints to a weekend sweep of Thompson Rivers University. On Friday, the

21-year old scored twice and collected six points in an 11-0 Selkirk

victory and was named the game’s second star.

 

 

 

Smith assisted on Jordan Wood’s goal to open the scoring and then fired

home from the point later in the first period to extend his team’s lead.

He went on to set up second period tallies off the rush by Cody Fidgett

and Ben Stabuck and was credited with his second goal of the game in the

third when a TRU player accidentally poked the puck into his own net.

 

 

 

One night later, Smith opened the scoring just 23 seconds into

regulation and picked up helpers on power-play goals by Kam Crawford and

Mason Spear to complete a three-point performance. He was named the

game’s third star following Saturday’s 8-1 win.

 

 

 

Smith now leads all BCIHL scorers with 12 points on four goals and eight

assists. Through five regular season outings he has picked up three or

more points three times.

 

 

 

Runners up for this week’s award include Trinity Western University

goaltender Harry Fredeman, Selkirk College forward Jordan Wood and Simon

 

Fraser University defenceman Bruin McDonald.
