The 17-year old had a weekend to remember scoring seven goals and 13 points in three games played on the road. The stretch began on Friday when Toth scored a goal and added a pair of assists helping the Bombers earn a point in a shootout loss.
Saturday night in Enoch will be one for the memory bank as Toth scored a natural hat trick (plus one) - all in the first period! He would go on to score another while adding three helpers in the 9-6 victory.
Playing their third game in a 22-hour period Toth wrapped up the weekend with a goal and assist in the Bombers 7-3 loss at Vegreville.
Born 13 days after Toth in Oregon, the American Canadian Joshua Kochan played his youth hockey for the Canadian Athletic Club in Edmonton.
