The Lowdown

This is the third time this season that the Pats and the Warriors have met. Moose Jaw won the first two in a home and home set in the beginning of November and have won 9 of the last 10 games dating back to last season. Tonight is also Budget Rent A Car teddy bear toss night. Fans are encouraged to bring a brand new stuffed toy and when the Pats score their first goal, toss the toy onto the ice. Over the next few weeks, the Pats will deliver the stuffed animals to local hospitals and charities.

On the Warpath:

The Warriors have won 7 of their last 10 games and are the least penalized team in the Eastern Conference. Their specialty teams are very similar to the Pats with the 6th best power play and the 16th ranked penalty kill unit. This will be the first time that the Pats and Warriors have met since a mid-November trade that saw Moose Jaw send Nathan McMaster and Danny Gayle to the Calgary Hitmen in exchange for Mackenzie Royer and Cody Beach
