How will the Vipers do tonight?

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

Anonymous said...

If Vernon plays tonight like last night, it will be our last game for this season. For the opening 10 minutes last night they played great. The rest of the game they were flat.

If they make a couple lineup changes they will win!

McKee is not smart enough to make changes. If our goalies are great we have a chance, if not we lose. Been the same all year. Without them Merrit would have been in the playoffs not us. Kuddos to both of them.

Marty said...

So you are saying Merner & Horn will draw back in and that will make a big enough improvement on last nights line up that it will mean a victory? I certainly hope you are right but I am not as confident, we will know by 9:30 tonight. Whoever dresses tonight better be prepared to match West Kelowna’s energy and win a few puck battles, something sadly lacking last night.

Go Vipers Go!!!

The warriors have two coaches who where former kelowna rockets memorial CUP championship players. So they know what it takes two win and that is very simple its called hard work for a full 60 minutes ,if not get your bags ready and start packing because your going home baby. Lets hope for the best,because you have to be at your best to win. GO,VIPERS,GO.

Yes, Marty and even more energy if he would play his skilled youngest player for experience and energy he goes to the dirty areas shows alot for a 16 yr old! Looking good so far 4-0 after 2 keep it rolling! Keep David in if he wins as well he is playng better in my opinion!
