Game Preview: September 28 @ Swift Current
SETTING IT UP:
The Raiders (1-1-1-0) visit the Swift Current Broncos for the first time in the regular season. Prince Albert is looking to get back in the win column after a 4-1 loss on home ice last night to the Brandon Wheat Kings. The Broncos are still searching for their first win of the season after falling 6-3 in Lethbridge last night.
BIBEAUUUU:
Ethan Bibeau has been a Raider to watch the last couple of games. After scoring his first WHL goal last weekend in Moose Jaw, he scored again on Friday night, tipping a shot home for Prince Albert’s only goal of the game.
BIG GUNS BACK IN TOWN:
Lukas Dragicevic, Tomas Mrsic, and Norwin Panocha all made their Raider debuts last night. Dragicevic picked up an assist last night on Bibeau’s second period goal for his first point as a Raider.
ROSTER CHANGES:
Earlier this week, the Raiders re-assigned defencemen Benett Kelly and Ryan Gower to their respective junior clubs.
