As we approach the middle of the season, two goalies have emerged as top contenders for the John McBride goalie award. This year two goaltenders are competing for the coveted prize. Brick Wall and Alexis Texas have both had impressive seasons, but their stats are very close. It is clearly anyone's award to win at this point.

Brick Wall, who has played 18 games this season, has a goals against average of 2.57 and a save percentage of 0.919. He has been a consistent and reliable presence in net for his team, and has made some truly spectacular saves throughout the season. His quick reflexes and ability to read the play have helped him stop some of the best players in the league, and have helped his team stay in the playoff hunt.

Meanwhile, Alexis Texas has played 13 games this season, with a goals against average of 2.71 and a save percentage of 0.902. Despite playing in fewer games, Texas has still managed to make a significant impact on her team. Her ability to control rebounds and make key saves has helped her team win some important games this season.

Both Brick Wall and Alexis Texas have shown that they are capable of playing at the highest level, and their performances this season have earned them the respect of their teammates and fans alike. However, the judges of the John McBride goalie award will have to consider a number of factors when deciding who will take home the trophy.

While Brick Wall's consistency and reliability give him an edge in the competition, Alexis Texas's ability to step up in big moments and make game-changing saves cannot be overlooked. In the end, it will come down to the judges' subjective evaluations, and both goaltenders will have to wait and see who will take home the award.

With S70 currently underway, it's no surprise that there are already a few leaders that have emerged as candidates for the Ron Mexico trophy. Among them are three hopefuls: Red Kirkby of the Philadelphia Forge, and Friedensreich Hundertwasser and Brick Wall both of the Montreal Patriotes. Kirkby stands strong right now as a points and goals leader in the league, with 24 goals, and 43 points. His impressive playmaking skills and ability to create scoring opportunities have been a key factor in the Forge's success thus far. Don't let that fool you though, Hundertwasser is right behind with 40 points. Hundertwasser's ability to control the tempo of the game and create scoring chances for his linemates has been instrumental in the Patriotes' success this season. His vision and creativity on the ice have made him a nightmare for opposing defenses to handle. While Hundertwasser probably needs to step up his game with goals to have a better chance, it's very clear that it is still anyone's race right now.

Brick Wall, though makes for another interesting addition to the mix. Coming in as a goalie, he has an impressive 13 and 1 start, with an incredible 0.921 Save Percentage, and only 35 goals allowed. It can be difficult to compare the value of a forward and a goalie, but it's definitely clear that Brick is also made of the right stuff.

Keep watching the streams to see who might have a chance to win this season.

The Toronto North Stars have a defensive powerhouse in Ben Der who has been making waves early in the season with his performance on the ice. Der has already tallied an incredible 98 blocks and 11 hits, as well as 21 takeaways. As a defensive player, Der's primary job is to protect his team's net and prevent the opposing team from scoring. With his impressive blocking skills, he has become a wall of defense for the North Stars, making it nearly impossible for the opposition to get past him.

Can he maintain the momentum throughout the rest of the season and tie up the Bojo Biscuit Award? Right now that's anyone's guess.
