(Game Preview) (Exibition) Salmon Arm VS Vernon:

Salmon Arm (0-1-0) VS Vernon (1-0-0)

Tonight will be the second meeting between these two hockey clubs in as many days, after Vernon defeated Salmon Arm 9-2 last night in Salmon Arm. Tonights exibition game will be played in Revelstoke starting at 7pm. The Backs went with just two veteran players last night, as Vernon went with three. Will either team go with more of a veteran lineup tonight? or get another good look at the younger kids? You may see a few fights tonight after things heated up a little through out the game. This is the Vipers and Silverbacks second game of the pre season as the Vipers will finish off the exibition schedule with a home and home series vs Westside Tuesday & Wednesday.
