Tonight's pre game blog is brought to you by:
Its been nearly a week of preparation for the Kindersley Klippers who have had 6 days off to get ready for tonight's tilt with the Flin Flon Bombers. Tonight marks game 4 of a 6 game homestand for the Klips, a homestand that hasn't went as planned up to this point. At the start of this homestand Kindersley likely seen this as a chance to gain some ground on Notre Dame in the Sherwood Standings, but that hasn't been the case with 3 straight loses on home soil. The Klippers will have to put those games behind them and turn focus to trying to knock off a strong Flin Flon squad. In terms of Kindersley I am calling tonight's game a must win game. They have fallen to 10 points back of Notre Dame and need to start closing the gap if they still have hopes at making the playoffs. If they lose tonight then Sundays rematch becomes that much tougher to win.
2 points certainly wont come easy against this Bomber squad. They are a very good hockey team with their confidence sky high after a big 9-1 victory Thursday night over the number one team in the SJHL the Battlefords Northstars.
The big side story in tonight's game will be the return of Jesse Mysiorek to KIndersley. Mysiorek has been very good for the Bombers since being acquired and you can bet emotions will be running high for him tonight. In 6 games with Flon, Mysiorek has registered 2 goals and 6 assists.
This is the 4th meeting of the season between these 2 clubs. Back on Sept 30th and October 1st two spirited and entertaining hockey games were played out in Flin Flon. The Bombers skated away with back to back wins but Kindersley came hard in both affairs. The 3rd meeting was at the SJHL showcase with Kindersley knocking off Flin Flon 3-2.
I will have much more during tonight's broadcast from the WCEC. Puck drop goes at 7:30, your pregame show will fire up at 7:15. You can get the web cast here http://sjhl.neulion.com/sjhl/
