Colton "Don't call me Bobby" Orr

RW
Height...6'2"
Weight...210lbs
Birthdate...03/03/82

A few folks in Tri-City will question Orr as the number one because they feel he's ducking their tough guys, but one look at Orr's dance card and you can tell he isn't avoiding anyone. January saw Orr fight Boogaard, O'Connor and Kazcowka. He's ducking who???????  I'm sure he'll find a spot for Mirasty on his dance card to satisfy the naysayers but Orr entertains every  time he drops the gloves and has yet to be manhandled by anyone.  It's his title to lose.
 
 
Ryan "Yawannago" Jorde

Defence
Height...6'3"
Weight...210lbs
Birthdate...03/23/82

Tough kid who doesn't avoid anyone, however he also doesn't destroy many opponents and only wins about half the time. You can't question his jam though and he doesn't take a backward step from anyone. Jumps from sixth to second with a  six fight month that included O'Connor, Voth, Gomez twice, Smith and Dion Lassu. This is a dance card any fighter in the league could boast about.
 
 
Derek "Boogey Man" Boogaard

LW
Height...6'7"
Weight...250lbs
Birthdate...06/23/82

Big, tough P.G. Cougar only had a couple of fights, one with Orr and another with Mirasty, but he keeps teams honest when he's on the ice and does his job. Hoping coach Dempsey finds it in himself to play Derek a little more over the next month and a half to see him take a run for the title.
 
 
Jon "Nasty" Mirasty

LW
Height...5'9"
Weight...190lbs
Birthdate...04/06/82

Four fights for the little heavyweight that could. But all joking aside, Jon shows up every night and gets a lot of bang for his buck on the limited ice time he sees. Four fights last month saw him entertain some tough hombre's in Sommerfeld, Boogaard, Bauer and Gaustad. This guy knows how to throw em and avoid taking too much punishment, but his size also causes him to have to use some energy to get position in order to land effective punches. But this guy is for real and if you judge him purely on his size, you'll likely be looking at the rafters.
 
 
Dion "The mad roper" Lassu

Defence
Height...6'2"
Weight...205lbs
Birthdate...02/19/80

Only one fight with Ryan Jorde in the last month however you won't get much argument from other players that this kid is very tough and not a guy to fight unless your ready to go to war. Seattle needs this guy on the ice, but hopefully Dion will find more time to go in the last part of the schedule.
 
 
David "How much knuckle can a" Boychuk

Defence
Height...6'4"
Weight...225lbs
07/16/81

Two fights for Boychuk and we keep hoping for more each month from this guy , but it never seems to come. Fought Black and Wanvig, two tough customers, but not really heavyweights. David will need to pick up the pace in the next month to stay in the top ten as some young guns are starting to show up on a regular basis.
 
 
Jordan "We finally got a picture" Clarke

LW
Height...6'2"
Weight...204lbs
Birthdate...01/27/82

Tough guy acquired by Spokane for the stretch run had three fights, one before landing in Spokane with Kazcowka and two with Stefishen since arriving. Jordan will likely be heard from over the last part of the season as he makes himself known to the west division.
 
 
Adam "Not madam, or madman" Stefishan

LW
Height...6'0"
Weight...200lbs
Birthdate...06/07/82

Just a little taller than Mirasty but just as tough and willing. This guy is an exciting fighter who likes to stand back and toss 'em. Two fights with Clarke and one each with MacAvoy and Brandreth make up his four fight month. Gritty, in your face player that is well worth turning out to watch for both his playing style and furious fights.
 
 
Paul "It's not Black, it's" Brown

C
Height...6'2"
Weight...171lbs
Birthdate...07/21/84

Nine fights in January as both a Blazer and Pat, this sixteen year old rookie is going about letting people know he's willing to dance which should allow the kid to show the high skill level he possesses as he should create some room for himself as he gets older and guys realize he's more than willing to defend himself. Exciting rookie had two fights with Kyle Bruce in the east before coming to the Kamloops, where he has fought Cuthbert, Knopp twice, Brodziak, McNeill, Stemple and Cam Paddock. This guy will be well known on this page in the years to come.
 
 
Shawn "Let me at 'em coach" Thompson

LW
Height...6'2"
Weight...205lbs
Birthdate...05/28/80

Four fights with three being against very tough customers in McLeod, Engelland, McNeil and Zanon thrown in for good measure. A heart and soul guy for the Chiefs who shows up every night, Shaun isn't going to knock many guys lights out, however his teammates are going to appreciate the way he defends them.
