Oakley Honors - Week 8

Rio Grande Valley left winger Daymen Bencharski and Colorado netminder Paulo Colaiacovo have been selected as the Week Eight recipients of the Oakley Central Hockey League Player and Goaltender of the Week awards. Bencharski registered three multiple point outings in four games last week, including his second natural hat-trick of the season, while Colaiacovo won three straight road games to take over the CHL lead in wins with 12.

Bencharski has been a pleasant offensive surprise for the Killer Bees this season, leading the club with 14 goals while sharing the team scoring lead with 27 points through just 21 games. He started his highly productive week with a pair of assists in a 4-3 loss in Youngstown on December 6th, then registered a goal and two more assists in a 5-1 win at Austin on December 10th. His top outing came in a 4-3 home win Sunday evening, recording a hat-trick in the second period of Rio Grande Valley’s 4-3 win over visiting Laredo. The natural hat-trick was his second of the season, also scoring three straight times in an 11-2 home win over Austin
on December 3rd.

Colorado has won eight consecutive road games, and Colaiacovo played a major role in victories this week in Tulsa, Bossier-Shreveport and Memphis, making a combined 87 saves while only allowing four goals against. He made 24 saves in a 6-2 win at Tulsa on December 6th, then 36 stops two nights later in a 4-1 victory at Bossier-Shreveport. He won his CHL-leading 12th game of the season December 10th with 27 saves in a 2-1 win at Memphis. Colaiacovo’s outstanding
week has moved him into fourth position in the CHL with a goals against average of 2.76, and he was the winning goaltender in last season’s Ray Miron President’s Cup clinching 1-0 win over Laredo on May 4th, turning in a 36 save shutout performance.
