Matt Erhart
brings his surging Surrey Eagles squad in Bear Mountain on Saturday night, for
their visit of the season to Victoria.
The Eagles
have won 4 games in a row and are hot on the heels of the Mainland Division
leading Chilliwack Chiefs. With recent addition Brady Shaw (acquired in a trade
for Eagles legend Trevor Morley) who has scored his fair share of goals against
the Grizzlies in the last two seasons, along with Victoria Royals protected
player Demico Hannoun, forwards Mike Stenerson and Trevor Cameron, this will be
another battle which the Grizzlies will need to bring their A game for.
After a great
result in what can only be describe as the Grizzlies graveyard in Powell River in
recent seasons last night, the black and gold will look to keep their good run
going at home. Although injuries have made things a little difficult for Bill
and Craig, the team is finding ways to win and gelling with new line mates when
the situation call for it. That is certainly the mark of a team that can and
should have a very successful season. With Brett Hartskamp and Justin Coachman
out of the line up, as well as Brady Rouleau not making the trip up to Powell
River last night, I’m sure we’ll see a couple of AP’s in the line up to back up
the boys.
Impressive
16 yr old goaltender Alec Dillon, was called up from the Westshore Wolves to
back up to Stiliadis on Friday night.
With the
season almost at the half way mark, Bill Bestwick’s team can be pleased with their
current place in the standing, but, if this season is to continue as the
success story we know it can be, beating teams the quality of Surrey will go a
long way to show how far we can go!!!
