Because the Winterhawks have four games this week, I will take this time to start with last night's game, since the weekend will be busy. The Winterhawks made it seven in a row and 12 at home after coming from behind to win at home 7-5 against Everett. Brendan Leipsic led the way with four goals and is second behind teammate Nic Petan in scoring. The trio of Petan, Leipsic, and Ty Rattie have more than 40 points each, and are clearly the go-to guys on a team that has Seth Jones finding his offensive touch at the right time and Oliver Bjorkstrand emerging as a solid secondary scorer. In the last 20 games, the Winterhawks have only lost once, and that hot streak now has them just behind the Halifax Mooseheads in the latest Canadian Hockey League rankings. Games against Tri-City (twice) and Seattle are looming this weekend.
