The younger brother of Chilliwack Chiefs forward Linden Hora has been named the most improved player for the Salmon Arm Silverbacks.
Seventeen year old Spencer Hora saw his first-full time action this year, logging 54 games for Salmon Arm.
While the teenager didn't dazzle offensively (54-1-6-7), he showed enough for the Silverbacks to believe he'll be a key player on the blueline moving forward.
Not a big D-man at five-foot-10 and 165 pounds, Spencer looks like he may have picked up Linden's knack for taking penalties, accumulating 51 this season.
He's still got a ways to go to catch his bro in that category though. Linden collected 91 PIMs in 51 games this year.
