The Spruce Grove Saints are in an unfamiliar position coming home to host the remainder of the Doyle Cup series against the Wenatchee Wild.
Spruce Grove lost just one game on their way to claiming the Alberta Junior Hockey League championship, but dropped the first two against the British Columbia Hockey League champions this past weekend in the best-of-seven series to determine the Pacific representative at the RBC Cup Junior ‘A’ National Championship May 12-20 in Chilliwack, B.C.
Game 3 is Tuesday (7 p.m.) at the Grant Fuhr Arena in what could be considered a must-win encounter for the Saints. Spruce Grove does not want to be down 3-0 going into Game 4 on Wednesday.
