I spent a day with @pdxwinterhawks Minnesota scout @JPilacinski to show what "A Day in the Life" looks like for a @TheWHL scout.

A huge thank you to Jeff, and also @MCoflin, for taking the time out of their schedules to give fans this unique perspective.

I struggle to find the words to express the sadness, shock, and devastation we are all feeling right now. There aren't enough positive words to describe Matt as a person; he was truly one-of-one. He treated everyone with the utmost respect. I miss him already, and I'm praying for his family, friends, fellow scouts, the hockey community, and our organization as we all mourn this loss.

Those are the only two dmen to accomplish that stat line since before 1996/97 when the @pdxwinterhawks record book changed the criteria for "Big Offensive Performance" from 5 points to 4 points. There have been a lot of 4 point games from dmen, but only these 2 with 2-2-4.

[Andy Kemper @AndyKemper]

Max Psenicka with 2-2-4 for @pdxwinterhawks in 6-4 win tonight in Kamloops. The last Hawks d-man to post 2-2-4 was Henri Jokiharju on 10/7/17 in 10-5 win in Seattle.

[Andy Kemper @AndyKemper]

Scoring updates for @pdxwinterhawks vs. Everett on 9/28:

1st goal - N. Brown from S. Spehar and Psenicka
3rd goal - Free from R. Miller and Sotheran

Impressive night for Ondřej Štěbeták between the pipes as he sets a new career best in saves.

His previous record in the regular season was 46 against Prince George on 11/1/24, and a playoff high of 49 in Game 4 against Prince George on 4/2/25.

Career-high 5️⃣0️⃣ saves for Ondřej Štěbeták tonight 👏

[Josh Critzer @jjcritzer]

This is a signing Portland fans should really get excited about! Dozark is player who will make an immediate impact next season and surely turn some heads!

Easton Dozark is one of the top 2010-born defensemen in the U.S. and is already 6’1” and 185 pounds as a 15-year-old.

He helped his Moorhead Bantam AA team to a national championship last year with an outstanding 34 goals and 35 assists in 55 games.
