Glass, who was the Vegas Golden Knights first-ever draft selection at sixth overall in the 2017 NHL Draft, recorded eight points (2G-6A) and a plus-five rating in two games as the Winterhawks poured on the offense with 18 goals over their pair of weekend games.
Saturday, in an 8-2 win against the Spokane Chiefs, Glass recorded three primary assists, factoring into his team's third, fourth, and seventh goals, all at even strength.
Sunday, Glass recorded the fourth five-point game of his WHL career, scoring twice and adding three more assists in a 10-2 win against the Kootenay ICE. Glass scored the sixth and seventh goals of the contest for the Winterhawks. He also picked up primary assists on his team's first and fifth goals while adding a secondary assist on their second goal. He was named the second star of the game and the first star of the night in the WHL for his efforts.
The two games helped Glass extend his point streak to 14 games, the second-longest streak in the WHL this season. With 51 points (11G-40A) though 24 games this season, Glass ranks fourth in WHL scoring and first in assists. Of Glass' 11 goals, he has four power-play goals and one short-handed goal.
