LETHBRIDGE, AB – Lethbridge Hurricanes Forward Justin Hall has earned the WHL Player of the Week.

Hall posted hat-tricks on consecutive nights January 15 and 16, finishing the week with eight points (6G-2A) in four outings for the Hurricanes.

He started his week by registering an assist Wednesday, January 12, helping Lethbridge record a 3-2 overtime victory versus the Swift Current Broncos.

The Edmonton product scored three times Saturday, January 16 in a 6-3 Hurricanes victory at Medicine Hat, before recording his third hat-trick of the 2021-22 WHL season Sunday, January 17 as the Hurricanes dropped a 5-4 shootout to the Edmonton Oil Kings.

This doesn’t come as a surprise since Hall is leading the Canes in many statistical categories.

Hall leads the team in goals (18), assists (18), points (36), power-play goals (five), and game-winning goals (four).

“Hall was originally selected by the Hurricanes in the seventh round of the 2016 WHL Draft. In 155 career WHL games, all with Lethbridge, he has tallied 108 points (46G-62A),” the WHL release reads.

Hall and the Lethbridge Hurricanes are slated to return to action Friday, January 21, when they play host to the Red Deer Rebels at 7:00 pm at the Enmax Centre.
