Bombers Klippers Preview

   

 

After being outscored 20-7 on the last road trip, the Flin Flon Bombers are looking forward to some home cooking as they will host the Kindersley Klippers in a pair of games this weekend at the Whitney Forum.

 

There was some doubt as to where the Bombers would be playing this weekend after the Whitney Forum roof was damaged earlier in the week due to heavy snow and freezing rain.

 

A big thanks to the construction crew for feverishly working hard to get the roof fixed for this weekend as the Whitney is back in business and open again today.

 

Flin Flon limps into action this weekend with only 1 point in their last 6 games but are still tied for first in the Sherwood Division with a record of 6-6-1-1 and tied with Nipawin. The Hawks have played 4 less games.

 

Kindersley is in the middle of a long road trip where they just dropped a 3-2 decision to Laronge on Wednesday to fall to 5-7 and are on the bottom of the Finning Division. The Klippers have to be careful, they can't afford to lose much more ground in the division which includes both Humboldt and Battleford.

 

Mike Reagan is trying to shake things up after acquiring all star defenseman Eric Sinclair out of Melville. Even though Sinclair was Millionaire property he never actually suited up and has been sitting home awaiting a trade the last few weeks.

 

Sinclair should be a difference maker right off the hop bringing his two Canalta Cup Championship rings from his days as a Melfort Mustang and is excited to end his career as a Bomber. He will be in the lineup tonight.

 

It is parents weekend and the Forum should be an electric atmosphere especially since it seems like an eternity since the Bombers played a home game. It's actually been 12 days.

 

Make sure you bring your radios and tell your friends and family to listen to 102.9 CFAR and flinflononline.com this Saturday as we hit the air waves at 7:15 with the Murray GM Coach's Show.
