The Victoria Royals got a prairie geography lesson on their longest road trip of the Western Hockey League season.
After playing seven straight games away from the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre, including five in Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta, the Royals are back on home ice for a doubleheader tomorrow (Oct. 28) and Sunday against the Vancouver Giants.
Along the way Victoria took over, then relinquished top spot in the Canadian Hockey League national rankings, but maintained a firm grip on first place in the WHLB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s B.C. Division. The club also is scoring at an impressive clip and has six skaters (Matthew Phillips, Dante Hannoun, Jared Legien, Regan Nagy, Tyler Soy and Ryan Peckford) scoring at more than a point-per-game pace.
Game time Saturday is 7:05 p.m. and SundayB´ÎÔª¹ÙÍøÍøÖ·™s contest is underway at 3:05 p.m.
