  1. I watched the Vipers/Warriors game on Hockey TV on my computer.

    This was a very entertaining and exciting hockey game. I thought the Vipers were the better team and had a slight edge in play over West Kelowna. Both teams made mistakes, turned over pucks etc. The Snakes created/generate a ton more opportunities, couldn't capitalize on there chances. Kelowna Rockets goaltender Roman Basran was solid in goal for the Tribe. The Vipers blew a 3-1 lead early into the 2nd period, could have put this game away if connecting on some of there looks/opportunities. West Kelowna looked good and played well at times but weren't very consistent through out the game. The Warriors were chasing Vernon often and gave up way too many chances. I really liked the Snakes discipline. Also give credit to the Vipers for limiting the Warriors to only twenty shots on goal. I thought the Snakes were a little more consistent last weekend. Even though this is pre-season, the Vipers can't blow a 3-1 lead and outshoot WK 13-5 in the 3rd and not capitalize on at least one chance. This is a young Vipers team, that needs to grow, learn from there mistakes and mature as the season goes on. I think this was a game the Vipers could have easily won and should have won.

    This is a much different Vipers team from the start of pre-season. I think Vernon has turned things around and playing much much better the past four games. I didn't like what I saw the first three games, but starting to like what I have seen the past four games.

    I wonder when the Vipers can expect the eight injured players back?

    I'm surprised the Vipers haven't named a captain yet.

    I thought Hunter Donohoe, Will Arquiett, Ethan Mercer, JoJo Tanaka-Campbell, Cameron MacDonald & Nicholas Kent all played well for the Vipers.

    Felix Trudeau, Nick Ardanaz, John Evans, Carter Wilkie, Matthew Stienburg, Deegan Mofford, Elan Bar-Lev-Wise and Roman Basran all played well for the Warriors.
