By the sounds of things, it looks as if the Vipers may have landed a goal scorer in Drew George for next season. George a highly touted recruit will add some secondary scoring to a Vernon lineup wich didnt have much of an offensive attack, compared to some of the other high scoring teams. The Vipers with just one player (Connor Jones 60 pts) in the top 40 in scoring during the regular season, depended on all four lines to contribute in the scoring department, rather then one or two lines, like other BCHL teams. George scored 27 goals & 46 assists for 73 points in just 43 games last season. It will be interesting with a possible 16 returning players coming back for next season, and more recruits being named over the next few weeks what the Vipers roster will look like for the start of next year.
It looks as if some Regina Hockey fans are pretty upset over all of this, read more on the WHL Fans Message Board,
