How will the Vipers do tonight?
ReplyDeleteMake your predictions, Who will win and what will be the final score?
Tough question!!! This could be the best game of the year so far with two very even teams. The Warriors who lost to Trail last night, twice squandering 2 goal leads to loose in OT will come in pissed off. The Vipers are on an emotional high after last nights win and the elation of the removal of their oppressive coach. They will want to win again for Colton & Lucas to prove this was the right team move. I predict a hard fought game with a 5-3 win for Vernon. Strap in, should be a good one. Go Vipers Go!!!
ReplyDeleteIll try 4- 3 Vernon win Diehard there were many rumors about coaching staff last night. Can you fill us in on the changes?
ReplyDelete3-2 Vernon
ReplyDeleteFinally Tom Glenn took some interest in his hockey team. WIN or lose tonight there's nothing but positive vibes in the Vipers dressing room now. Let's hope that Lukas and Colton can keep it going and create a positive environment that has been missing for the last 5 years
ReplyDeleteMcKee Officially home on family issues!
ReplyDeleteOfficially home on family issues. That is a nice way of putting it. So lets leave it at that and move forward. Vernon tried to win for us fans but less face it Kelowna got that weird goal and some puck luck to put the game away and also was good at slowing down any comeback momentum. It could have gone the other way. Fitness. Eddy johnstone,Troy mick and Mark ferner all good coaches stressed this as a number one priority. Perhaps the fitness trainer needs replaced??The current coaching staff has a uphill challenge to make changes in play that Mckee had in place that was not working. Go vipers go.
