KIJHL All-Star Team comparison with KIJHL Division Awards

The KIJHL recently posted the Divisional Award Winners (listed below). I thought it may be fun to compare the divisional award winners with the All-Star Team I named.

Below is the list of the award winners (without the Coach of the year), those in bold were named to the all-star team.

DIVISIONAL AWARDS FOR 2013-2014      
EDDIE MOUNTAIN DIVISION

Top Defenseman – BRYCE PERPELITZ –Kimberley Dynamiters
Most Sportsmanlike – JESSE COLLINS – Creston Valley Thundercats
Most Valuable – TREVOR HANNA – Creston Valley Thundercats
Rookie Of The Year – LOGAN STYLER – Creston Valley Thundercats
Top Goaltender – KYLE MICHALOVSKY – Creston Valley Thundercats
Top Scorer – JESSE COLLINS – Creston Valley Thundercats

NEIL MURDOCH DIVISION
Top Defenseman – ARCHIE McKINNON – Beaver Valley Nitehawks

DOUG BIRKS DIVISION

Most Valuable – KIENAN SCOTT – Summerland Steam
Rookie Of The Year – KIENAN SCOTT – Summerland Steam
Top Goaltender – TYLER O’DONNELL – Kelowna  Chiefs
Top Scorer – JAGGER BOWLES – Kelowna Chiefs

And the following are players named to the team, that are not listed above:

  • Brandon Formosa - Creston Valley
  • Seth Schmidet - Creston Valley
  • Travis Wellman - Nelson
  • Daniel St. Pierre - Nelson
  • Dallas Calvin - Beaver Valley
  • Jackson Purvis - Grand Forks
  • Spencer Spoech - Kamloops
  • Josh Rasmussen - Kamloops
  • Brock Balson - Kamloops
  • Tyson Levesque - 100 Mile House
  • Nick Josephs - Kelowna
So out of 24 players named to the all-star team, 11 didn't get divisional awards (54% of the All-Star team received awards). And out of the 24 awards listed, only 7 were not bolded (a 70% accuracy). Not bad I'd say.

It's also noticable that I had more omissions in the Okanagan/Shuswap Conference than the Kootenay Conference, and this is probably because I cover the Dynamiters games and I see Kootenay Conference teams more often that Okanagan/Shuswap Conference teams.
