A Friday night battle between the Saskatoon Blades and the Prince Albert Raiders is an event to behold…when there are lots of fans at SaskTel Centre or its a jam-packed building at the Art Hauser Centre.

       But, what will it be like Friday night…in front of about 50 team personnel, game staff, media and scouts, essentially an empty Brandt Centre in Regina?! We’ll find out beginning at 8 o’clock when the Central Saskatchewan rivals collide for the first of four meetings in the W-H-L’s East Division “Dubble.” This is the only game Friday in the provincial capital. The Bridge City Bunch and P-A are the last two teams to play a fourth game in their 24-game schedule. They’re, also, the last two teams who have yet to taste defeat in regulation time…coming in with 2-0-1 records, tied for third place. The winner leaps into sole possession of top spot. The broadcast on 98-COOL starts at 7-30 with the Sardinia Family Restaurant pre-game show.
