The USPHL has announced that Vernal Oilers blueliner Cole Bisson is the Northwest Division Defenseman of the Month.

Bisson found his true groove in Vernal, and that continued with a 4-10-14 line in 11 contests in February.

The Vermont native was plus-15 (best among Northwest defensemen) over the course of the month and the Oilers also made good on their top seed by advancing to the championship series this coming weekend against the Seattle Totems.

During his youth hockey days, Bisson played for the Utah Outliers, West Coast Renegades, and Skyline High School.
