Zajac Snubbed

Despite having the fourth most points in the Interior Conference Kelly Zajac was not voted into the All-Star game. Zajac has 13 goals and a Interior Conference best 31 assists this season. He is also one of the best centers at taking face offs in the league winning approximately 66% of the draws he takes. This Ironman also stays out of the penalty box totalling 16 penalty minutes in playing in all 34 Silverbacks games this year. All this from a guy who has spent most of the season as the second line center without the benefits of top line wingers to play with.

On the flip side of things I am very pleased to see Prince George goaltender Damien Ketlo among the three Interior goaltenders. While Ketlo's numbers might not be all that impressive this 16-year-old is a big-time big-game goalie. Of his six wins two have came against the Silverbacks, one against Penticton, and one over Vernon. In those four games Ketlo has a save percentage of .927 and a goals against average of 2.25.
