Grizz 6, Dogs 5, in double OT.

A crazy game at the Bear Mountain Arena Friday night, pretty much what I would have expected for a Friday the 13th game. The Dogs trailed early, before firing four straight past Alex Peck to lead 4-1 after one. The Grizz then fired back with three straight in the second to tie it up at 4-4. NINE seconds later the Dogs took the lead right back, but the Grizzlies again tied it just three minutes later. The third saw no scoring, as did the first overtime. Tyler Gubb would get the winner in double OT.

A valiant effort for the Dogs, but they sadly fell short and they won't get that elusive win against the Grizzlies this season. The Dogs took the Grizz to OT three times this season but they just couldn't find that golden goal, with the Grizzlies winning two and the other one ending in a tie.

Next up for the Dogs is the Nanaimo Clippers on Saturday night, who lost 2-1 at home Friday to the Cowichan Valley Capitals. With the win the Caps secured 2nd spot on the Island and home ice advantage over the Clippers in round one of the playoffs.

The Dogs have beaten Nanaimo twice this season, but both of those wins came at the Frank Crane Arena.

It's the first game at home in a while after five straight on the road.

It's also time for bed. Good night!
