ReplyDeleteWho will win and what will be the final score
The league must feel sorry for the Vipers, scheduling a game with Meritt who are basically cannon fodder. 6-1 Vipers.
ReplyDeleteWhat a ridiculous statement, the league scheduled 29 games with other opponents, besides the Vipers. Cents are a much better team at home, beating Wenatchee/Cranbrook and last week we’re up 3-2 on Salmon Arm after two periods. It will be a much closer game than the Vernon result…..4-2 Vipers !
