PREVIEW: Americans @ Blades – November 16
LAST GAME: The Americans saw their 12-game winning streak come to an end with a 5-3 loss to the Prince Albert Raiders last night. Penalties proved costly as the Raiders scored three power play goals in just over five minutes to stave off an Americans third-period rally. Tri-City trailed 2-0 after one and two periods last night before scoring three straight to take a short-lived 3-2 lead.
VS SASKATOON: Tonight is the lone meeting of the season between the Americans and Blades. Last season Tri-City dropped a 6-3 game to Saskatoon on home ice on November 28. Tri-City has lost their last five head-to-head meetings with Saskatoon, all in regulation, last picking up a win on January 7, 2017 at the Sasktel Centre.
