Gameday Preview

Raiders host Broncos for final time this season

Feb 11, 2023 | 12:27 PM

The Prince Albert Raiders (19-28-3-0) wrap up their home and home series against Swift Current Broncos (24-21-1-2) with game two set to go down at the Art Hauser Centre tonight.

The game is an important one for PA where they will be looking to avoid the sweep of the season series as Swift Current leads it 3-0.

The game is also the second in as many nights for the Raiders in which they were shutout for the second straight time last night against the same Broncos team 4-0. Additionally, the loss was PA’s third consecutive after winning four in a row prior to the skid.

The Broncos, on the other hand, come into the game riding high having won their last two matchups with the other coming against the Spokane Chiefs by a 3-1 score last Friday.

After tonight, the Raiders get a lengthy break before welcoming Connor Bedard and the Regina Pats to the Art Hauser Centre for the final time this season.

An updated look at the Eastern Conference standing heading into tonight.
