50 goal men

There has been only one 50 goal scorer in the WHL in the last four years - Joel Broda notched 50 for Moose Jaw & Calgary last year. This year, with two weeks left in the season, there are two players who SHOULD get to the magic mark, and another two who have good chances if things go right for them.

Kyle Beach of Spokane has 48 goals with 7 games left to play. It's very unlikely he will not get to the 50 mark. And Jordan Eberle of Regina has 46 goals with 5 games to play; he has averaged .9 goals per game this season so four goals in five games should be do-able for him.

Cody Eakin of Swift Current has 45 goals with 5 games left to play, so he needs to average a goal a game the rest of the way. Can be done, especially since three of those five games are against teams equal or lesser to the Broncos.

Ryan Howse is a guy who is a bit further away - 41 goals with 6 games remaining. Except that the Bruins have two games left against Prince George and Howse has 8 goals in 6 games against the Cougars this year. If he could pick up 4 or 5 goals against the Cougars, then 50 might be do-able for him.

Matt Calvert (40 goals with 6 games left) and Prab Rai (40 goals with 7 games left) are two more guys who are in the ballpark but are probably just a bit too far back of the 50 mark to have a chance.
