    Game #14 – Thursday, April 8th, 2021 @ 6:00Pm - Brandt cEntre, Regina, SK Prince Albert Raiders (4-7-1-1 – 10pts) Saskatoon Blades (9-2-2-0 – 20pts) 6th – East Division 9th – Eastern Conference 2nd – East Division 3rd – Eastern Conference PP – 8/53 (15.1% - 18th in WHL) PP – 9/48 (18.8% - 12th in WHL) PK – 43/60 (71.7% - 17th in WHL) PK – 42/48 (87.5% - 5th in WHL) Tonight… The Saskatoon Blades look to reignite their scoring touch as they welcome the Prince Albert Raiders into the Brandt Centre. After winning seven consecutive matches, the Blades have lost three straight, while the Prince Albert Raiders return to the rink after dropping a gritty 3-2 decision to the Brandon Wheat Kings. Over their recent slump, Saskatoon has mustered just three goals — one of which on the powerplay — which is a stark contrast to their output throughout the month of March averaging 4.3 goals per game. This is the third of four meetings between the two provincial rivals, with the Blades earning two hard-fought victories on March 29th (4-0) and March 19th (3-1). Despite the Raiders record, Saskatoon should expect a difficult team to play against. Prince Albert tested the first-place Brandon Wheat Kings on Monday night, narrowly falling 3-2, and come into this one fresh off two days’ rest. Tale of the tape… There’s never a shortage of drama between these two rivals, and the last meeting was certainly no exception. Blades captain Chase Wouters was handed a three-game suspension for cross-checking Raiders star Ozzy Wiesblatt late in the game, and defenceman Rhett Rhinehart served a two-game suspension for supplemental discipline.
