黑料不打烊

听

OTTAWA (CIS) - The reigning University Cup champion New Brunswick Varsity Reds top the CIS men's hockey rankings for the sixth time in as many media polls this fall.

听

The V-Reds, who were a unanimous choice at No. 1 for the fifth straight week thanks to 17 first-place votes, improved to 11-0 in conference play with a 2-0 shutout of UPEI (5-5-2) last Friday in their lone outing of the past week.

听

Back in 2007-08, when they set a number of AUS records en route to a remarkable 26-1-1 mark, the V-Reds also started the regular season with 11 consecutive victories before dropping a 5-4 shootout decision to the Moncton Aigles Bleus, the team they are set to visit on Friday night when they go for win number 12. The defending CIS champs also host cross-town rival St. Thomas on Saturday.

The Canada West-leading Golden Bears are second in the nation for the sixth straight week following a two-game sweep of provincial rival Calgary, 7-2 and 6-4.
