How will the Vipers do this afternoon?

Make your predictions, Who will win and what will be the final score?

Bobby C said...

Absolutely no idea. West Kelowna played last night and it could be a tough turn around game for them. Can the Vipers mentally bounce back after a bad game in Trail. Its a crap shoot and it will come down to coaching and the players desire to win. Go Vipers 4-2

JB said...

I agree with Bobby C. Who wants to play hard enough for the win today.
