PEORIA, IL – The Peoria Rivermen are proud to announce, in conjunction with the SPHL, that
forward Khaden Henry has been named this week’s Warrior Hockey/SPHL Player of the
Week. This is Henry’s first Player of the Week honor this year and second for the
Rivermen in the 2025-26 campaign.
Henry, a native of Markham, Ontario in Canada, netted six goals and one assist for seven points in Peoria’s last three-game weekend series against the Knoxville Ice Bears on January 2, 3, and 4. Henry scored two goals in all three games and was instrumental in Peoria’s sweep of Knoxville. In just 11 games with the Rivermen this year, Henry has accumulated 16 points (12 goals, 4 assists) and is averaging 1.45 points per game, the most in the SPHL. Henry also leads all SPHL rookies in goals (12) and ranks 6th in points (16).
This is Henry’s first Warrior Hockey/SPHL Player of the Week honor since coming to the SPHL from the FPHL earlier this year. He joins teammate Michael McChesney who was named Player of the Week back in November of 2025. Henry and the Rivermen will be hitting the road this weekend to take on the Birmingham Bulls in Alabama on Friday and Saturday, January 9 and 10 at 7:00 pm both nights. It will be Peoria’s first full weekend on the road since early December.
