Bulldogs host Grizzlies tonight at the Dog Pound, Casey Bailey interview

It's a lighter than usual schedule this weekend for the Bulldogs (8-5-1-0, 2nd Island) as they return to home ice tonight to host the Victoria Grizzlies (6-6-0-2, 3rd Island) for the third meeting between the teams this season. The Dogs are in Duncan tomorrow to visit the Capitals for a 2pm start time.

These teams last met to start October when they split a home-and-home set, with the Bulldogs winning 4-3 in OT in Victoria on Friday, October 3rd. The Grizzlies responded the next night in Port Alberni with a 4-3 win of their own, scoring two third period shorthanded goals just four minutes apart (the only two the Bulldogs have allowed all season) to erase a 3-2 Bullldog lead after 40 minutes.

The Bulldogs enter play tonight unbeaten in three after a 2-2 tie in Langley on Sunday afternoon. The Grizzlies were also last in action on Sunday afternoon, when they lost 6-5 to the West Kelowna Warriors in a game where the Grizzlies jumped out to a 3-0 lead just five minutes into the game. The Grizzlies have lost four of their last five games, but have been in every one of them, losing 2-1 in Penticton, 4-3 in overtime in Merritt, 5-4 in Nanaimo, and winning 5-4 at home against Surrey last Saturday night. 

 We'll have all the action for you on 93.3 The Peak FM's Bulldogs Hockey brought to you by Van Isle Ford  with the pregame show getting underway at 6:45 and the play-by-play/colour+analysis to follow with myself and Bruce MacDonald. Dan "the statsman" Tisserand is a game-time decision!
