Halifax 21st SuperSailor #5 (S93 Week 5): Jon Webber III

[LucyXpher 1,576]

 

For the 5th and final week of the regular season, the Halifax 21st are proud to announce Jon Webber III @Webberj as their SuperSailor.  In the 13 games this past week, Webber III continued his strong run of play and led the team to a record of 7-3-3 in their important stretch run-- including a 10 game point streak with 7 consecutive wins-- drawing to within 3 points of the first place Ottawa Lynx at the conclusion of the season.  During this stretch, Webber III posted back-to-back shutouts against Mississauga and Miami and continued to be a rock for the 21st between the pipes.  While his save percentage at .899% continues to stand out as lower than one might expect from a goalie of his quality, his 2.23 GAA ranks him among the top goaltenders in the VHLM and currently ranks him at 2nd on the Halifax 21st all-time list-- lower only than Henry Tucker Jr who only played 8 games with the club.  

 

In 60 games this season, Webber III has backstopped the team to 41 wins, losing only 13 times in regulation, and only 3 times in overtime or shootout situations.  Those 41 wins already ranks him 10th on the Halifax 21st all-time goaltenders list while he has played significantly fewer games than those players on the list around him.  Throughout the season, Webber III has been a huge part of this team's success, especially after Samuel Wazinski found himself on the IA reserve.  In 59 starts, he has never been pulled from the Halifax net once and has posted 4 shutouts for the Nova Scotia squad with Founder's Cup aspirations.

 

Off the ice, Webber III has been a model of consistency, putting in work every week to improve his game, modelling the kind of dedication that any manager would hope for in a player. 

 

Congratulations to Jon Webber III on a fantastic week and season in the VHLM and on being named the Week 5 SuperSailor.
