The Aardvarks battle The Pointers for the IRHL C-side Banner
Tonight, the Aardvarks battle The Pointers for the IRHL C-side Banner. If successful, the Varks will bring home their 14th league banner over their 33 years of existence. We asked Aardvark go-getter Jason Gulay how they are going to approach the big match.
‘I am sure tonight’s game will be a barn burner, it usually is against these guys. But we have the intimidation factor on our side…Gunner Gislason’s 75 mph wrist shot. We plan to set him up between the red line and blue line and let him just rifle that puck against the boards during warm-ups until the game begins. That will sure give Triska the willies.’
Fans can catch the C-side final at 8:30 pm at the Riverton Memorial Arena.
See you there!
