Zackary Wilensky scored the game-winning shorthanded goal to give the Coquitlam Chiefs a championship victory at the bantam Great Northwest Challenge in Everett Wash., last month.
The team took down the Chilliwack Bruins 5-4 in the finals and Wilensky, along with Nick Sookachoff, Aleksandar Davidovic, Zachary Choe and Kyle Collins, were named tournament MVPs for their effort.
It had been a big tournament for Wilensky.
The young forward scored the game-winner in overtime in a 3-2 semifinal win against the Burnaby Bulldogs to punch the team’s ticket to the championship game.
Goalie Malcolm Lamaire backstopped the Chiefs in all five games of the tournament.
