Sockeyes host Pilots in First Place Showdown - Flames face Outlaws

The top two teams in the PJHL go head-to-head tonight in Richmond, as the Sockeyes take on the Abbotsford Pilots at Minoru. The Pilots have been rolling over their opposition, on route to a eight game winning streak, but face a very tough test tonight. The Sockeyes are currently in second place in the Shaw Conference, one point out of first, but have three games in hand. The Sockeyes and Pilots have played twice this season, with each team winning once at home. Meanwhile, the Ridge Meadows Flames will take to the road to face the Mission City Outlaws. It's a big game for Mission City, if they are to have any chance of reeling in the third placed Flames. A win for The Outlaws would lift them to within six points of Ridge Meadows. The Flames are 2-2-1 in their last five games.
