Winnipeg Ice ranked #1 junior club in CHL preseason Top 10

The Winnipeg Ice were a very good, young hockey team last season and while they ultimately fell short in a great WHL playoff series with the Edmonton Oil Kings, they were projected to be another top club in the country again this season.

Today the CHL preseason top 10 rankings were released and the Ice ranked number one. The Top 10 looks like this:

1. Winnipeg Ice
2. Quebec Remparts
3. Seattle Thunderbirds
4. Guelph Storm
5. Kamloops Blazers
6. Gatineau Olympics
7. Flint Firebirds
8. Mississauga Steelheads
9. Sherbrooke Phoenix
10. Moose Jaw Warriors.

It won’t be an easy start to the season for Winnipeg who will play 13 games on the road to start the season. They begin on Saturday against provincial rival Brandon at Westoba Place. Puck drop is at 7 PM.

I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
