“We have a lot of good local rookies,” Nesbitt said. The Black Creek native has backed the team to seven wins - third best in the VIJHL. The Glacier Kings net is tended by a trio of rookies, with Ryder Lally shouldering most of the duties. Matt Teasdale of Royston has also put up some impressive numbers, scoring eight times and registering nine assists in 13 games. “He keeps going the way he is, he’ll catch them.” Only five players in the league have more points. Team captain Caileb Berge, a forward from Sylvan Lake, Alta., has scored 23 points in 14 games this season. “It was very emotional for the boys at home.” So far this season, the Glacier Kings are the only team to have beaten Campbell River - a 3-2 overtime win at home Sept. “Tough one on Friday night, but the boys bounced back pretty good,” Nesbitt said. On Friday, they lost 5-1 on the road to the Lake Cowichan Kraken. On Saturday, the Yetis beat the Nanaimo Bucs 7-2 at home. Sunday in Victoria, the Kings won 5-2 over the Westshore Wolves, who sit second behind the Victoria Cougars in the South Division. “Team’s great, good bunch of kids too,” Nesbitt said. In the early stages of the 2021/22 season, the Yetis are second behind the Campbell River Storm in the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League (VIJHL) North Division with a 9-5 record. He promptly rebuilt the junior B hockey club, and the team started to win games. Mike Nesbitt predicted a change for the better last year when he took over as head coach of the Comox Valley Glacier Kings.
