THURSDAY

Kool 101.3 is excited to have the opportunity to broadcast the first three games of the Rural Alberta Midget Hockey League finals Live from Peace River.

I will be heading up tomorrow morning and we will be on air Live from Royal Country with Game 1 at 8:30 tomorrow night. Game 2 is Saturday at 8:30 and Game 3 starts at 12:30 on Sunday.

It's a best of 5 series between the Northeast Panthers and Peace River Royals with the Royals holding home ice advantage. Games 4 and 5, if necessary, will be played in Bonnyville March 28th and 29th.

There's a quick reference to a '92 Camrose D-man in the Globe and Mail this week. Check it out here to find out who.

Plus it's an interesting story.

The newest edition of the Edmonton Oil Kings franchise will play their first ever playoff game this weekend when they travel to Calgary to take on the Hitmen. The Oil King blueline features former Bonnyville Pontiacs D-man Drew Nichol.

The Oil Kings clinched the 8th playoff spot with a one game playoff win against the Prince Albert Raiders after both teams finished tied in the regular season standings. No one expects Edmonton to even make it close in the first round against the High flying Hitmen.

Today is the last day for baseball registration in Bonnyville. 6-8 tonight at the C2.
