TORONTO — The Guelph Storm are back on top of the Canadian Hockey League.
Guelph (4-2-0-0) reclaimed No. 1 in the Week 3 edition of the CHL Top-10 Rankings, released Tuesday, riding a four-game winning streak back to the summit.
The Québec Remparts (5-1-0-0) climbed to No. 2 after pushing their winning streak to five games, while the Victoria Royals (3-1-0-0) slipped to third following their first loss of the season. Victoria had held No. 1 through the first two weeks of the season.
The London Knights dropped from second to fourth. The Medicine Hat Tigers moved up one spot to No. 5, and the Moncton Wildcats (5-1-0-0) rose to No. 6 even as their season-opening five-game winning streak came to an end. The Saint John Sea Dogs climbed from ninth to seventh.
Three teams cracked the rankings for the first time this season: the unbeaten Spokane Chiefs (5-0-0-0) at No. 8 and Sudbury Wolves (5-0-0-0) at No. 9, along with the QMJHL-leading Rimouski Océanic (5-1-1-0) at No. 10.
Dropping out of the Top-10 were the Cape Breton Eagles (No. 5), Saginaw Spirit (No. 8) and Calgary Hitmen (No. 10).
