  1. Make your predictions

    Who will win and what will be the final score?

  2. Salmon Arm scores an average just over 4.0 goals per game. Vernon scores an average of 2.5 per game. Something like 4-2 or 5-2 sounds about right. Another loss without being blown out.

  3. Wake me up when it is over. The young children where yawning as fans they where bored out of there minds. I was thinking usually I find the glen boring to watch with his boring signature moves which usually in tale giving the puck away but the whole team could have been glens. I myself was saying lets get the game over. Apart from watching Jason Mckee scratching his head or picking his noise not much excitment. On the time limit to trade off players for new we should look at the future and trade off all our 20 year olds for 17 and 18 year olds as at least we maybe able to get something for the under achievers. What a terribly unexciting year.This team has no proven scorers and Jo Jo just not scoring now that he has his scholarship not having to care ,not much effort shown and looks average. Boring year. BOO,BOO. WE NEED A COACH,WE NEED A COACH. CHANT,CHANT, WE NEED A COACH.

  5. Question of the day? Would anyone want our 20 year olds. Ryan Shostak is the only player of value. The teams with a smart GM pretty much have their set and if a trade was made do you really think any player would report to this dysfunctional team
