How will the Vipers do tonight?

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

BINGO said...

Vernon two to one. Vipers, play a forward game with discipline for a determined 60 minutes of play and also stay out of the penalty box and yes you have a chance at beating penticton much to the delight of your fans. go,viper,go.

I will say 5 - 2 Vees but hope I am wrong. The Vees are a fast, very skilled team that plays a structured game. They are also very consistent, something that has eluded the Vipers lately. The roster moves this late in the season will again work against the Vipers.

Please prove me wrong. Go Vipers Go!!!

Bingo get your brainwashed head out of the sand. The Vees have been the class of the league for years thanks to a great coaching staff and GM. Vernon's coach is a dud who will be mopping out the dressing room if the current used car salesmen owners get bored of a team of losers top to bottom and decide to bail out and sell. (Let's hope dreams come true). After all, they have done what they bought the team for to get entitled Jackie four years of embarrassment.
