Brandon Wheat Kings, 7th in Eastern Conference, 16-11-1-1  
Top Scorers: Scott Glennie (15+18=33), Brayden Schenn (14+18=32), Jay Fehr (10+19=29), Andrew Clark (13+13=26), Matt Calvert (10+16=26)  
Top Defenceman: Keith Aulie (2+14=16)  
Probable Starting Goalie: Priestner had a great game last night and may have earned more starts, but I'm going to guess Andrew Hayes gets the call tonight (10-6-1-0, 3.20, .892)  
 
Which Wheat King team and which Tiger team will we see tonight? Last month in a game at Westman Place, the Tigers out-worked the Wheat Kings in a convincing 6-2 win. One week ago today in the rematch, Brandon went into Medicine Hat and won 3-2 on a last minute goal... outshooting the Tigers 32-21 in the process.  
 
That loss last weekend was actually the Tigers' only regulation loss over their last ten games (8-1-0-1).  
 
This will be the last home game for Brayden Schenn, Matt Calvert and Keith Aulie before going to Canada's World Junior camp.  
 
Former Wheat King Matt McCue has 13 points and is a +14 in 18 games with the Tigers so far. Last time in Brandon he was the game's first star and will likely be at the top of his game again tonight.  
 
Will be looking forward to seeing Scott Glennie continue to breakout as one of the league's elite offensive players. Scott has 10 goals, 10 assists over his last 14 games and hasn't shown any signs of slowing. Brayden Schenn (6 goals, 11 assists) has also been on a roll over those same 14 games.
