Morning!

After being awake from 6:00am - 1:00am yesterday, I made sure I slept from 1:00 to 9:30. Man that felt good! Terriers are enjoying breakfast in the hotel as I type... I think I missed it, so I'll wander down the street to Timmie's in the next little while. Sounds like the Terriers are going to the rink soon to grab their equipment and kill some time. Pre Game meal is at BP's at 1:30, before leaving for Kindersley around 2:00. Terriers and Klippers tonight at 7:00.

All is quiet at the Gold Eagle Lodge right now, but we're told the Melville Millionaires, La Ronge Ice Wolves, and Weyburn Red Wings are all checking in tomorrow! Infact the Mils and Terriers are both eating Pre Game at BP's back to back before their game Friday at 2:30.

Terriers' Coach & GM Ed Zawatsky looked ahead to the Klippers on last night's Post Game Show.

"We can close some gap in our division. Hopefully we're not too discouraged we haven't been scoring. We're just looking for that 50 minutes we played in the middle (last night) in Battleford and we should be fine."

This is only the second of six meetings between the Terriers and Klippers this season. Kindersley won the first one 6-2 on Halloween in Yorkton, while going 3-for-5 on the PP. Klippers have been hot of late, now sitting 15-10-0-1, 2nd place in the Sherwood, with a 4 point lead on ND and YOR. They're 4-1-0-1 in their last 6 games.

Some notes to consider:

- KK's Andrew Dommett has 14 goals in 13 home games this season.

- KK's Taylor Duzan has 16 points in his last 10 games.

- KK's Jordan Braid is top-5 in scoring with 17g-17a-34p.

- Ex-Brandon Wheat King Sanfred King scored two goals in his debut as a Klipper, now has 3-goals in 4-games.

- Klippers continue to ride 17-year-old rookie goalie Josh Thorimbert, who's 12-and-5 with a 2.88 GAA and .914%, along with a shutout.
