It's the first game of the New Year for both clubs, as (weather willing) the Alberni Valley Bulldogs (20-14-0-2, 3rd Island) return to action following the Christmas break tonight by hosting the Powell River Kings (19-19-2-0, 4th Island) tonight at the Multiplex for the first game of a back to back set.
This game of course was supposed to be the conclusion of the two game set - that will be now moved to Sunday evening at 6:00pm after last night's postponement due to inclement weather.
The Bulldogs last played December 22nd in Surrey, where they won their fifth straight on the road, and third straight overall 3-2 over the Eagles in a shoot out. The Kings have played twice already since returning from their break, most recently playing on New Year's Eve at home where they fell 5-4 to the Nanaimo Clippers.
These teams last met December 8th at the Multiplex, when the Kings emerged with a 4-1 win. The prior meeting was on November 2nd in Port Alberni, a 4-0 Bulldog win. This is the fifth meeting of the season between the teams. The Kings took the first two meetings by scores of 6-3 and 6-5 in Powell River on the first two nights of the season way back on September 6th and 7th.
