Round 2 of the WHL playoffs is heating up as the Saskatoon Blades return home after a tough start in Prince Albert. Defenseman Jack Kaczkowski joined up in the studio to talk about the intensity of the rivalry, the challenge of playing in a hostile road environment, and how big it is for the group to be back in front of their own crowd at SaskTel Centre for Games 3 and 4.

He says home ice could be a major turning point…Packing lots of fans into Sasktel Centre for a loud, energetic vibe will be a big part of gaining an advantage over PA. The focus now is simple: increase shot volume, create pressure, and find ways to beat a strong Prince Albert Raiders goaltender. It’s two crucial games ahead, he’s calling on fans to pack the building and bring the energy as Saskatoon looks to even the series.
