The last East Division rival to visit Saskatoon and SaskTel Centre since the COVID-19 pandemic was declared and shut down the W-H-L finally makes it here Wednesday night.

The last time the Winnipeg ICE tangled with the Blades at SaskTel Centre was 714 days ago, New Year’s Day, 2020. Now, the ICE come in as the top-ranked team in…not just the East Division, the Eastern Conference and the whole W-H-L…but the entire 60-team C-H-L! That’s despite Winnipeg going 2-3-1 in their last six games, including a 4-1 setback Tuesday night in Prince Albert. Saskatoon head coach Brennan Sonne knows that the ICE are dangerous…..

The Bridge City Bunch are coming off Tuesday’s 5-4 overtime victory in Moose Jaw. Game time is 7 p.m. with the broadcast on CJWW beginning at 6:30.
