While the race for the Mike Szatkowski Trophy looks to be heating up with various contenders such as Helsinki's Mattias Forsberg and Jack Shephard and Calgary's Keaton Louth and Jasper Canmore all within just a few points of each other, the destination of the S61 Scotty Campbell Trophy seems set long before the season is over: it will be off to Pablo's trophy cabinet.

 

The veteran defenceman, who sat out the first 19 games of the season to give his competition a headstart, has take the VHL by storm since signing for the Riga Reign. His career-long thirst for the Continental Cup quenched by steering the Helsinki Titans to the league's ultimate prize in S60, Pablo decided to dedicate his final year in the VHL to developing a young and promising Reign team, a role he will certainly carry on in retirement with a rumoured position in the front office to follow after this season is over.

 

Although Pablo is unlikely to inspire Riga to a surprising playoff appearance, Quebec's lead in 5th place to large to overcome, the fact they are even involved in the race is a huge credit to Pablo's addition to the squad. Boasting a 1.53 PPG pace, nearly .2 ahead of his nearest teammate and on par with the league's points leaders mentioned above, Pablo's influence on the Reign has been huge and key to the turnaround in their fortunes. Furthermore, the rookie partnership of Podrick Cast and Edwin Preencarnacion, underdogs for the Stolzschweiger Trophy early in the season, have now turned the ROY race into a battle between themselves, and are indebted to the experienced blue-liner's presence for allowing that to happen.
