Runners-up: Travis Janke, Notre Dame; David Skagen & Matthew Spafford, Nipawin. Defenseman of the Week Patrick Sitko, Flin Flon Bombers 1990 D Patrick Sitko (Kitchener ON) often plays in the shadows of Michael Young and now Taylor Thiessen; but he's been extremely steady all year long and he stepped out of that shadow last week with three points in three games and he remains an important cog in the wheel on the Bomber blueline. For the season, Sitko has three goals and 19 assists in 31 games. Runners-up: Kyle Cowan, Humboldt; Woody Klassen, Battlefords; Scott Brkich, Nipawin. Goaltender of the Week Graham Hildebrand, Battlefords North Stars 1991 G Graham Hildebrand (Saskatoon SK) allowed just two goals in two starts and somehow didn't win either game. However, he posted spectacular peripherals (0.96-GAA, .968-SPCT, 1-SO). Hildebrand hasn't given up more than three goals in a start since October 16th. His overall stats are 3-5-0-and-2, 2.88, .907. Runners-up: Chris Ward, Melfort; Derek Tendler, Estevan; Matt Weninger, Flin Flon; Kirk Croswell, Humboldt.
