Calgary Hitmen CHL

WHL Best of the 2010s: Jake Bean

ByAdam Kierszenblat

Jun 29, 2022

Few were as dominant from the blueline as Jake Bean was during his WHL career. Playing for the Calgary Hitmen and Tri-City Americans, he recorded 196 points in 219 games. He sits fourth all-time in points by a defenceman and third in points per game from a blueliner in Hitmen history.

Bean exploded onto the scene in 2014-15 with 39 points in 51 games. His 34 points ranked him third among all rookies in the WHL with his 39 points ranking 13th. While his first season was strong, his second season is where he shined.

2015-16, Bean became lethal from the blueline. He led all WHL defenders with 24 goals and finished sixth with 64 points in 68 games. Not only was he named to the WHL East Second All-Star Team, but he was also invited to the CHL Top Prospects Game and won Gold at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial tournament.

Bean continued his strong WHL career in year three with 45 points in 43 games. For his efforts, he was selected to Team Canada at the World Juniors. After playing in seven games, he helped Canada capture Silver at the tournament. As for his season in the WHL, he was once again selected to the WHL East Second All-Star Team.

In Bean’s last season, he split time between the Hitmen and Americans. He recorded 48 points in 57 games. Once again he was selected to Team Canada winning a Gold at the World Juniors. He was dominant in the playoffs with 18 points in 14 games before Tri-City was eliminated.

A weapon from the blueline, Bean was a special talent. He is well deserving of being included in our Best of the 2010s list.

  365. Hi, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i
    was just wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks?
    If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?
    I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any help is very much appreciated.

  528. Thanks for your publiction. Another thing is that being photographer consists of not only problem in taking award-winning photographs but additionally hardships in acquiring the best photographic camera suited to your requirements and most especially hardships in maintaining the grade of your camera. This really is very true and noticeable for those photography fans that are in to capturing the actual nature’s interesting scenes : the mountains, the forests, the particular wild or seas. Going to these adventurous places absolutely requires a video camera that can meet the wild’s nasty conditions.

  573. I’d personally also like to say that most people who find themselves without the need of health insurance are generally students, self-employed and those that are laid-off. More than half of those uninsured are under the age of 35. They do not come to feel they are in need of health insurance simply because they’re young and also healthy. The income is generally spent on property, food, along with entertainment. A lot of people that do go to work either whole or part-time are not made available insurance by their jobs so they get along without due to the rising price of health insurance in the us. Thanks for the tips you share through this website.

There are many learners who are merely trying to endure and have an extended or beneficial credit history can sometimes be a difficult matter to have.

  683. Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is important and all. But just imagine if you added some great images or videos to give your posts more, “pop”!

  725. Thx for your post. I’d like to comment that the expense of car insurance differs a lot from one insurance plan to another, due to the fact there are so many different facets which bring about the overall cost. Such as, the make and model of the car or truck will have a tremendous bearing on the price. A reliable outdated family vehicle will have an inexpensive premium than the usual flashy expensive car.
