Guntis Goals Trending

[Girts 976]

Houston Bulls defenseman Guntis Gavilrovs is becoming quite the goal scorer lately, 2 more goals today vaults him into 2nd place among defenseman in the entire VHLM with 16 on the season! I He's only 2 behind the league leader and it's possible he could pass him very soon. #GuntisGoals is definitely trending. It's quite remarkable that a player who came in as an elite shutdown defenseman could developing his scoring touch so quickly but Bulls fans and management are happy to see it. Gavilrovs is still playing his elite shutdown game out there and throwing tons of hits, up to 133 on the season, good for 7th in the league and 4th among defenseman. His +25 rating also ranks 4th among defenseman and his blocks are solid at 65, especially given the fact that Houston doesn't allow a ton of shots against, especially early in the season. Gavilrovs now has 16 goals, 32 assists and 48 points in 52 games, nobody expected this kind of offense from the 6'8" 250 pound bruiser, but fans, coaches and management are hoping it continues into the post season!
