The Warriors are coming off a big 3-2 victory over the Vipers Friday night. It was a great start for the Warriors who scored a pair in the first period. The Warriors got an insurance goal in the second frame from Jacob Brockman which would end up being the game winning goal. The unsung hero of the game was Johnny Derrick who stood tall stopping 27 of 29 shots.
Tonight it’s the conclusion of the two game set versus the Vipers. This time it’s takes place in Kal Tire Place. The Warriors played the Vipers well Friday night. They capitalized on the penalty kill going a perfect 6 for 6, they also managed to score the second and third goal off turnovers. The Warriors will need the same effort as Friday night and need to be prepared for a much better Vipers team this time around.
This evening’s game will be broadcast on both HockeyTV and the Warriors Mixlr Network. Puck drop at 6:00pm from Kal Tire Place in Vernon. For tickets to any upcoming home game visit tickets.westkelownawarriors.ca for details and packages.
