Bulldogs face Capitals tonight

 

It's down to the final four games of the pod season as the Bulldogs (9-3-3-1, 2nd Island) play "host" to the Cowichan Valley Capitals (6-9-2-0, 3rd Island) tonight at the Multiplex. 

The Bulldogs had a day off yesterday, last seeing action on Monday night where they earned a 7-2 win over the Nanaimo Clippers. 

The Capitals played last night, where they did the Bulldogs a big favour in picking up a 3-2 win over the Victoria Grizzlies.  It was the Capitals third straight win. The Caps have been playing great hockey lately - after losing seven straight games, they've won 4 of their last 5 and have points in five straight with their only loss coming in overtime to the Grizzlies. 

This is the sixth meeting between the teams in the pod season, with the Bulldogs having a head-to-head record of 3-1-1-0 while the Capitals are 2-2-1-0. 

The Bulldogs won the first three games - 5-4 in overtime on April 3rd, 5-0 on April 10th and 4-0 on April 17th. The Capitals have won the last two meetings - 4-3 in overtime on April 24th and most recently by a 2-1 score on May 1st.

Pacific Chevrolet Bulldogs Hockey takes the airwaves on 93.3 The Peak FM at 6:45 for the pregame show. I'll call the play-by-play of all the game action that follows the 7:00pm Pacific puck drop. 

Tonight's 1st Intermission guest is Bulldog Goalie Luke Pearson.

Tonight's 2nd Intermission guest is former Bulldog Lars Hepso. I don't want to spoil the interview too much, but Lars is a fantastic story. Traded as a 20 year old, he made the tough decision to give up playing - but he's very much stayed in the game, and has ascended to work within it at the highest level possible. 

He's the founder and owner of Skate With Power . Since 2-18, he's been the Skating Coach with the Arizona Coyotes.
