IBAS SJHL DEFENSEMAN OF THE WEEK:  Eric Sinclair, Melfort Mustangs
1996 D Eric Sinclair (Kenora ON) started off his season with a flurry as he scored goals in both wins against LaRonge over the weekend and ended up with five points in the two games played.  Sinclair was last year’s SJHL Defenseman Of The Year and has a shot at winning the award two years in a row if the first weekend is any indication.  Runner-up:  Jeremy Lagler, Weyburn.
