The first home game after Christmas is alwasy a fun one. So many familiar faces in town for the holidays that often come out.
The Wheat Kings and the Pats have met four times this year already, with Brandon having won three of those games. That includes a 3-1 December 12 win in the Queen City.
In head to head games, Pats rookie sensation Jordan Weal has 1 goal and 6 assists to lead his team. Defenceman Victor Bartley has scored 3 of his 7 goals against the Wheat Kings.
For the Wheat Kings, Andrew Clark has scored 4 goals in the 4 games (4+1=5).. Jay Fehr has 5 points as well (1+4=5)
I'll post lineups approx a half hour before game time.
