The Wheat Kings try to get back on the winning track tonight against the division rival Moose Jaw Warriors. Both teams are part of a 3-way tie for spots 6-8 in the Eastern Conference standings and each will no doubt be looking for a leg up with a win tonight.
I'll be looking forward to seeing what kind of effort the Wheat Kings come out with tonight after taking their share of criticism for their finish to last night's game against Calgary.
Lineups and scratches will be posted approx 30-45 mins before game time.
