Giants goaltender David Tendeck has been named WHL goaltender of the week, and it’s not hard to see why.
Playing at home in the 91Ô´´ Events Centre on Monday, Tendeck managed his second career shutout – his second since the start of the month.
In two games this week, Tendeck posted a record of 2-0 with a 0.50 goals-against-average, a save percentage of .984 and one shutout. He turned aside 61 of the 62 shots fired his way guiding the G-Men to victories over Victoria Friday and Prince George Sunday.
For the season, the sophomore goaltender has put together a record of 12-6-0-1 with a .913 save percentage and a 2.90 goals-against-average.
The NHL draft eligible netminder currently sits third in the WHL in goals-against-average, and is tied for third in shutouts. For the month of December, Tendeck is 6-0 with two shutouts and a save percentage of .949. Dating back to November 11th, Tendeck has won nine of his past 11 starts.
That has helped the Giants to a six-game winning streak that included Sunday night’s win over the Prince George Cougars.
