KIJHL Power Rankings - December 22, 2016

Just before we get settled in for the Christmas weekend, let's look at the KIJHL Power Rankings while the stats are static for several days.

Since it has been freezing, let's start with the cold news, and work our way to the hot news.

First the cold teams:

• Kelowna Chiefs have declined six points since the last power ranking, followed closely by the Grand Forks Border Bruins (who started the year ranked 3rd in the September Power Rankings and now sit 15th).
• It's a three way tie for the three coldest teams: Creston Valley Thunder Cats (still dangerous, just have cooled their engines to human), Fernie Ghostriders and the Columbia Valley Rockies. - December was a rough month for a chunk of the Eddie Mountain Division.

Second, the hot teams.

• The Revelstoke Grizzlies have improved the most since November.
• The Kamloops Storm are right behind.
• And the Osoyoos Coyotes - which helped them take the number one spot.

The Beaver Valley Nitehawks have surrendered the first spot to the Osoyoos Coyotes, and now sit second. The Kimberley Dynamiters sit third, ahead of the Creston Valley Thunder Cats and Summerland Steam that are tied for fourth.

Here is the complete listing:
