Prince George one point out of third place in BCHL's Interior Conference, tough roadtrip looming.
They haven’t been around town much lately, and due to their schedule they’re going to have to make themselves scarce again this weekend. But they do intend to make it up to their faithful followers.“It’s been a road-heavy schedule for us to start the year, we’ve played 11 of our first 17 games on the road,” said Evin. “So we obviously have a lot of new players on the team that are learning how to travel and how we travel and I think for the most part we’re doing OK.
“We haven’t played the Island Division opponents for awhile and we don’t know much about our opponents, we’re more worried about our identity and if we can play to that we’ll have some success,” said Evin. “It will be nice for us to play a game on home ice.” ”They have a lot of players from their championship team and that makes them strong naturally and we saw they are playing with good synergy as a group,” Evin said. “It was a good experience for us to play them. Whether we won or lost that game we were going to learn something about our team and we’ve got a lot of work to do.”
The Kings have been dealing with sickness that knocked a couple players out of the lineup last week when they played a doubleheader in Merritt and that’s meant plenty of line-juggling for Evin. They lost the first game Thursday 3-2 to the Cents and rebounded with a 7-5 victory on Friday afternoon. Defenceman Tait Ross, an 18-year-old Dartmouth College recruit, remains on the 30-day injured list with an upper-body injury. Centre Ty Gagno probably won’t be back for another week.
