The Kimberley Dynamiters named Cody Campbell as their September Player of the Month.
"It's pretty cool." Campbell said "But it doesn't happen without the team in front of me playing so well. I don't get this kind of recognition without the guys in front of me playing so well."
Head coach and general manager Derek Stuart said, “Cody is very deserving of this recognition for the month of September.
"He went 4-0 including a 42 save performance in Beaver Valley in his first game back with the team. He’s the best goalie in our conference and he continues to prove it every night”
Campbell won all four of the games he started in, turning away 123 of the 131 shots he faced, including one shutout.
"My personal numbers are not just a reflection of me, but also the team in front of me." Campbell added.
Campbell joined the Kimberley Dynamiters a couple of games into September after finishing a tryout at the Junior A level in Alberta.
"It means a lot to me thought that the coaching staff found that kind of value with only playing a few games. It is exciting that they want to recognize me."
For Campbell, he said the highlight of the previous month was how closely knit the team is compared to last year.
"What stood out the most is how cohesive the team is. We are already working together as a unit, not just on the ice but off the ice. It just shows that we are prepared as a group."
Overall, Campbell is just excited about the potential this season.
"We have a really special group. We have a real opportunity to do something special this year."
