Who made this schedule? The Vipers are playing game #11 tonight and playing Prince George for a fourth time already? Six home games and we have already seen Salmon Arm & Prince George twice each? Come on! I don't want to see the same teams over and over again. Spread out the schedule better. This is boring!

This coach Jason Mckee and his coaching staff should leave the building and not come back. I was at tonights game and what started out as a joke making a prediction that P.G. would win six to one became sickening with a score of eight to zero, PRINCE GEORGE. With scores like these I am sorry but the coach has to be sent packing and replaced as this team needs a change of course as truly IT is sad to watch games that our not entertaining at all. This team they way they are being coached is very SAD,SAD. Fans we must chant FIRE JASON,FIRE JASON as this is the only way thick headed Glen will get it as fans NOT HAPPY, VERY SAD, VERY SAD.

He will never get it. You are talking about an owner who laced up his skates and came onto the ice to run practice when he first came here. He knows everything better than everyone else. If he hadn't been such a donkey to Ferner maybe he could have circled back to him now. This guy doesn't burn bridges, he blows them up.
