Eagles' Weiman Closing in on CHL Shutout Record

If a season could ever be described as “banner”, Colorado rookie goaltender Tyler Weiman is surely having one. Saturday evening the first year netminder turned in his 7th shutout of the season, five ahead of six others tied with 2, as the Eagles posted a 2-0 win in Laredo. One more goose egg this season will earn Weiman a share of the CHL single season shutout record of 8, shared by Matt Barnes (Austin, 02/03) Rod Branch (Tulsa, 02/03), and Grant Sjerven (Odessa, 00/01). He has to be considered a favorite or at least a strong contender for both CHL Most Outstanding Goaltender and CHL Rookie of the Year honors while leading the CHL not only in shutouts and in wins (21), but in goals against average (1.60) and save percentage (.945), both numbers which would also rewrite the record book. Wednesday evening, Weiman was again near the center of attention as he started for the Northern Conference and made 19 saves on 21 shots as the North won a wild 14-13 shootout affair.

CHL Results - Saturday, January 15th, 2005

Colorado 2 @ Laredo 0
Colorado rookie Tyler Weiman made 22 saves to earn his 7th shutout of the season, just one short of the all-time single season CHL record. Greg Pankewicz set up Ryan Tobler for the game winning goal miday through the third period, then sealed the win with an empty netter. Colorado has now won six straight, while the defending champions Bucks have dropped their last four.

Odessa 1 @ Lubbock 3
The Cotton Kings maintained a share of first place in the Southwest with a 3-1 win, paced by a pair of goals from All-Star Anders Strome. Joel Irving opened the scoring for Odessa, but Lubbock potted the next three for the victory.

Topeka 1 @ Oklahoma City 4
Jared Bourassa, Pat Hallett, Shawn Weiman and Bryan Forslund scored to help the Blazers snap a five game winless skid. Sean Connors was full value in the Oklahoma City net, allowing only a goal by Topeka’s Dallas Flaman.

Wichita 6 @ New Mexico 8
New Mexico earned a split of a wild two game series vs Wichita, led by two goals and an assist each from Randy Murphy and Shaun Legault a night after losing 9-6 to the Thunder. The clubs combined for 29 goals in the two games.

Rio Grande Valley 0 @ Austin 5

Corpus Christi 2 San Angelo 4

Memphis 1 @ Amarillo 2 (OT)
All-Star Derek Hahn ended the contest 1:40 in overtime with his 17th goal and third game winner of the season, maintaining the Gorillas share of top spot in the Southwest Division. Phil Aucoin, leading all CHL rookies with 39 points, had his 15th goal of the season for the RiverKings.
