CHL Award Winners: Week 2

The CHL announced today its player of the week and goaltender of the week for week 2 of the CHL season. Rapid City's Chris Lipsett grabbed player of the week honors, notching 7 points (5g, 2a) in 3 games for the Rush this week. Having shared a division with Lipsett for the past few years, I'm sure most Scorps fans are aware of the offensive damage this guy can do. Looks like he's found a nice spot playing along side former Gorilla Rich Hansen and recent addition Les Reaney, a former teammate of Scorps forward Nate Bostic at Niagara University.

Meanwhile, Oklahoma City's Andy Franck took home goaltender of the week honors after picking up points in all four of his starts this week (2-0-2). The fourth-year pro sported a 1.32 goals against average to go along with a .947 save percentage. When you share a division with Bossier-Shreveport, every point's going to count come playoff time.
