Vancouver Giants rookie Burke Hood has been impressive in his last three starts for the WHL team.

The Giants haven't had a 17-year-old starting netminder since Ryan Kubic in 2015-16 .

Vancouver returns to action Friday with a visit to the Kelowna Rockets and Saturday at Langley Events Centre .

Ondej Štbeták , a 17-year-old from Czechia , is the only rookie goalie who’s played more than Hood this season in the WHL .

There were only three 20-year old goalies last year in the league.
