Blades Melt the Kootenay Ice.

Right from the opening face off the home team Blades played with Jump in the stride. They scored the 1st goal. In a very back and forth game.

Logan Flodell got the nod between the pipes. He stopped 38 shots?? He bailed out the Blades defence when called upon.  1st year WHL defenceman (Not a rookie IMO) Mark Rubinchik threw a big hit. Which the Ice did not like.  So Rubinchik fought.  He landed some good punches.  He did end up being taken down.  60 minutes was not enough time.  The Blades had a 2 man advantage. Saskatoon's top line put the game away.

Blades won by a score of 3-2.  Enjoy these photos!!  Very exciting game to watch tonight. The Blades next home game is on Thursday the 17th VS Moose Jaw.  3 road games in Alberta before that!
