The Bulldogs were last in action Sunday afternoon where they topped the Powell River Kings 6-4 in a wild and crazy game. With that win the Bulldogs pulled even with the Capitals for 4th place on the Island. It was the first time since Day 1 of the season that the Dogs weren't in 5th.The Grizzlies were in Nanaimo last night where they lost their 4th in a row, 4-2 to the Clippers.
There is a chance that the Grizzlies with be without leading scorer Myles Fitzgerald tonight (4th in league scoring) after he picked up a five minute major for slashing late in the game last night. As far as I am aware, league policies dictate that ALL Major Penalties are reviewed by the Executive Director.
Take a look at the video below. An interesting call to say the least. You can't argue with how flagrant the two-handed baseball bat swing of the stick was. On the other hand, the player that takes the slash doesn't just appear to be un-injured by the slash, he doesn't seem to even notice he received it. It wasn't until the second time I watched the replay that I noticed Leo Fitzgerald deliberately away from the Clipper player just as he's going to pick it up, directly in front of the Referee. Not the most sportsmanlike move in the book, but I have to admit I had a pretty good laugh!
The Dogs got some help on the out of town scoreboard as the Kings topped the Caps 5-4 in Powell River.
These teams last met immediately before and immediately after Christmas, with the Grizzlies taking both games at Bear Mountain Arena by scores of 5-1 and 4-1 respectively. The teams have met just twice at the Dog Pound, with the most recent meeting going on December 14th where the Grizzlies picked up a 3-2 OT win after the Dogs had dug out of a 2-0 hole after two periods. The Bulldogs have done everything against the Grizzlies except WIN. They have lost, lost in overtime, and also tied, their Head-to-Head record is 0-3-1-1.
The pregame show gets underway at 6:45, with the puck drop to follow at 7:00pm.
