The Flin Flon Bombers jump back on the ice tonight as they will host the Yorkton Terriers at the Whitney Forum with puck drop at 7:30pm.

 

The Bombers are hoping they can build off the momentum of Saturday's 5 to 1 win over Nipawin.

 

This will be the first meeting between these two teams since Friday October the 24th when the Bombers smoked the Terriers 11-0 right in their own rink. Flin Flon snapped a six game losing streak that night and are now unbeaten in their last three games.

 

Yorkton has won three straight since the loss to the Bombers  and are a good road team this year at 4-2-1 away from the Westland Arena.

 

The Bombers are a perfect 5-0 at home and are tied with the Terriers for 7th overall with 17 points. Tonight should be a very interesting matchup with a lot on the line in their third meeting this year, and Yorkton looking for redemption.

 

Yorkton took the first meeting 5 to 2 back on October the 15th on the strength of 4 powerplay goals, so the season series is 1-1.

 

Both teams have similar stats with the Bombers scoring 59 goals in 15 games while the Terriers have 56 in 15 games. Flin Flon has given up less goals with 44 compared to 60 surrendered by Yorkton.

 

It has been a very good rivalry the last several years and tonight should be a great atmosphere at the one and only Whitney Forum. The Bombers want to show that they have turned the corner and get some momentum heading into Melfort tomorrow night.

 

While the Terriers have a lot to prove against Flin Flon and will be looking for redemption after the blow out loss at home.

 

No broadcast tonight on radio but you will be able to watch on Flo Sports. We will have the broadcast from Melfort tomorrow with the Great North GM Coach's Show at 7:10 and play by play at 7:30 for Creighton Furniture.
