The biggest storyline here in Newfoundland has certainly got to be the Ric-Bas connection, cause that pairing is absolutely popping off in points. Ric Charlesworth is leading the Simulation Major Junior Hockey League in points, currently with 12 goals and 13 assists, while Bas O’Bigbers on his wing has been having a brilliant third season with 11 goals and 13 assists of his own.

The last time the Berserkers had such a dominant forward connection was probably Minamino and Marner on their Season 55 Four Star Cup team. That pairing weaponized the Berserkers power play into a relentless machine that helped power them to a championship.

Will Bas and Charlesworth sustain this production? Hopefully so. It’s been a pairing that has pretty much become the team’s primary scoring source, and if this line marches onward into Newfoundland greatness, I would expect that they’d be the secret weapon to Newfoundland’s playoff run this season.
