Kimberley Dynamiters December Player of the Month: Keegan McDowell

Prior to Saturday's game against the Fernie Ghostriders, the Kimberley Dynamiters named Keegan McDowell as their December Player of the Month.

"Keegan had a great month." Head coach and general manager Derek Stuart said. "He was a driving force for his line. He was outstanding in December.

"Whenever a line has success, the centreman is a big reason why. That's the case with Keegan in December."

In December, McDowell scored five goals and seven assists in eight games. His efforts also earned him an honorable mention for the December Kootenay Conference Player of the Month.

McDowell just smiled when he was asked what the recognition means, "it means that I need to keep it going, keep it consistent, and go harder for the second half of the year, and in the playoffs."

He was also quick to appreciate that the whole team has been successful and is winning games, which for him, is the most important part.
