It just a matter of time before the Richmond Sockeyes lock up the best record in the Pacific International Junior Hockey League.
With just six regular season games remaining, the defending PIJHL champions own an 11 point cushion over the Delta Ice Hawks atop the Tom Shaw Conference standings.
They are also 12 points better than the Aldergrove Kodiaks who sit first in the Harold Brittain Conference standings.
Richmond made it 30 wins in 36 games with a 7-2 victory at Ridge Meadows last Friday. Jeremy Hamaguchi led the way with a three point night, including a pair of goals, to move closer to PIJHL scoring leader Spencer Traher of the Ice Hawks. Kyzen Loo also had three points, while goaltender Tyler Klassen made 20 saves against his former team.
The same two teams meet again on Thursday at Minoru Arena. Game time is 7: 30 p.m.
