Adam Vigfusson and Austin Dubinsky have both been recognized by the Manitoba Junior Hockey League for their outstanding play for the Niverville Nighthawks.

Dubinsky was named the top goaltender in the league for the month of October, finishing with a record of 8-1 while boasting a sparkling 0.930 save percentage.

Dubinsky only trails Dauphin’s Justin Perreault in save percentage for the season, while appearing in twice as many games. The Ardossen, Alberta, goaltender has thrived for Niverville since taking over as the team’s full time starter last season when Raiden LeGall earned a call up to the Western Hockey League.

He had a 22-11-1 record last year with a save percentage above 0.920. The 2005-born goaltender played with Grande Prairie in the Alberta Junior Hockey League before joining Niverville.

Nighthawks aren’t the only Eastman connections receiving accolades, as St Jean’s Sebastien Hicks, who plays for the Waywayseecappo Wolverines was a shoe-in to be named the RBC player of the month.

The 2005-born forward has torn through the league to become the league’s leading point-scorer, powered by five multi-point outings in November.

Nighthawks Adam Vigfusson was named one of the league’s players of the week as well, putting in a solid performance with five points in three wins.

The Nighthawks are the third in the nation-wide Canadian Junior Hockey League top 20 rankings, with just a single loss this season.
