SGEU MVP of the Week: Ben Polhill, Estevan Bruins
The Estevan Bruins picked up two much-needed wins this past weekend, and the rookie Polhill was an enormous reason for this. Indeed, the Bruins defence picked up their game over the two contests, and Polhill would be the first to admit it, but credit where it’s due – Ben was outstanding in giving up only two goals over the two games.

Bourgault Forward of the Week: Keenan Ingram, Yorkton Terriers
It is no secret that Ingram is one of the league’s premier power play specialists, but he poked the idea that it’s all he is hard in the eye this week. None of his four points in a wild Highway 10 rivalry win Friday were with the man-advantage

SuperU Defenceman of the Week: Cole Tanchuk, Flin Flon Bombers
The veteran of 210 SJHL games, plus Centennial Cup contests, always plays within his dominant shutdown role. So, when he scores twice as he did in Nipawin on Saturday, you know it was in the flow of playing the right way. Flin Flon is on fire, a predictable outcome in November given their newfound health, and Captain Cole is a big part of it.

Sasktel Goalie of the Week: Graham Brown, La Ronge Ice Wolves
Another week, another brilliant goaltending performance from an Ice Wolf. Brown took his turn Friday at the Mel Hegland Uniplex, stopping 51 shots en route to a 2-1 victory over the Humboldt Broncos. Both he and Logan Falk have been excellent all year.

IKS Media Rookie of the Week: Ethan Sautner, Kindersley Klippers
The Klippers were the busiest team in the league this past week, and he and his line with Braden Cunningham and Stein Dostal more-than made the most of it combining for 11 points over the four contests. A come-from-behind win in Wilcox over the Hounds Wednesday was much-needed and featured a dazzling between-the-legs goal by the Kindersley local Sautner.

Canterra Seeds Saskatchewan Player of the Week: Raiden Zacharias, Melville Millionaires (from Saskatoon, Sask)
A battle with the Mils’ Highway 10 rival Yorkton Terriers is not a bad time at all to notch a first-career hat trick, and such was the case for the rookie Zacharias. He has formed an excellent partnership with veteran Raine Hodge as well, though their
