Will Ingemann was already having a league-topping rookie season — and then February happened. Now, the Penticton Vees netminder can find his name in the BCHL’s all-time record book.
Ingemann, 18, set a new record for the longest shutout streak on March 1, after posting four consecutive shutouts and not allowing a goal for 260 minutes.
“It was probably after that third game where I was like, ‘oh wow, I haven’t allowed a goal in three games,’ but I didn’t let it get to my head,” the Wayzata, Minn. product said. “I tried to take one game at a time, not focus on the past and be present.”
Ingemann’s streak started on Feb. 4, with a 21-save performance on the road against the Merritt Centennials.
