I'm sad to unofficially report that Brian Kang won't be entering the BCHL's record books. Or at least, he won't be a record holder.
Here are Kang's stats.
I say "unofficially" because there's no word from the BCHL offices on this matter. I certainly understand that the record book isn't priority #1, but at least returning my phone call would be appreciated. Hey, maybe they're busy....?
There was plenty of talk over the last while regarding "Kanger" and his chance to break the BCHL All-time regular season games played record this year. I knew from the very beginning that something didn't sound right with that though. Why? Because I remembered all this going on already in the 2006-2007 season, when Sean Overton (then with the Nanaimo Clippers) was breaking the games played record. I went and checked the BCHL Record Book at that time, and Rob Milliken was listed as the record holder with 273 games played with Powell River and Kelowna. A check of the record book this season STILL lists Milliken as the record holder, not Overton.
Check out Sean Overton's career stats HERE
NOW - here's the asterisk. Overton ALSO played in 2002-2003, the year BEFORE the current BCHL Executive began their tenure, and the year before the current version of the league website began operating.
A quick call to my colleague Dan Marshall, the play-by-play voice of the Nanaimo Clippers, got me the answer I was looking for. Man Danno is good.....
Overton played 53 games in 2002-2003 with the Penticton Panthers.
So - Add that to his 231 games listed on his current career stats and you get 284. The league record holder for games played. "Unofficially" of course. Brian Kang would be second on the all time list, as far as I can gather. Unless there's some question into Overton's numbers.
Anyway - there ya go.

Cents Forward Scott Jow Breaks BCHL Record
Friday, January 4, 2008 - Submitted by Merritt Centennials
The Merritt Centennials are pleased to announce that 20 year old forward Scott Jow became the all-time BC Hockey League games-played leader at 274 when he stepped on the ice for Friday's game in Vernon against the Vipers. Jow eclipses the previous mark of 273, set by defenceman Rob Milliken with Powell River, Kelowna, and Victoria.
Jow, who made his BCHL debut during the 2003-04 season as a 16 year old with the Coquitlam Express, also played with the Salmon Arm Silverbacks and Surrey Eagles prior to being acquired by the Centennials last summer. He has missed just five games in his entire five year BCHL career.
The Cents organization would like to congratulate Scott for etching his name into the BCHL record book.
Seems I did more checking on the background than the Merritt Centennials did, as I knew that 273 wasn't the record. Now - I'm guessing Jow DOES have enough games to break Overton's record?
Wait - that was Jan 08!
