The Royals have rallied to win games but have lost just as many the other way
They have rallied to win games but have lost just as many the other way, including blowing 2-0 leads last week in Kamloops and again on Friday night against Moose Jaw as the Warriors scored four unanswered third-period goals in a 4-2 victory at Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre.
“It’s been a bit of a mixed bag of everything for us,” said Royals head coach James Patrick, heading into the weekend.“There have been periods when we haven’t done either of those things as well as we could. For us to be successful we’ve got to compete our tail ends off and play our system the right way. When we do that, I believe we can compete and play with anyone.”
Royals forward Vaughn Watterodt went to two Eastern Conference finals with the Blades — including last spring when regular-season champion Saskatoon lost to Moose Jaw in overtime in Game 7 — before he was traded over the summer to Victoria. “It’ll be nice to get a few chirps in. I know a couple of guys I’m going to give it to. We’re going to joke around but it will be all business during the game.”
