As his Western Hockey League Regina Pats team entered the second half of their schedule, defenseman and alternate captain Ryker Evans continued his lead-by-example season. He scored his fifth goal and added a primary assist in a 6-5 win over the Edmonton Oil Kings Monday night.
Better yet, Evans tallied the game-winning goal in the victory over an Oil Kings squad that was 22-6-2-1 in the first half while Regina is now 13-16 on the year. Evans is leading the way with five goals and 25 assists (the latter tied for third highest in WHL) for 30 points in 29 games.
