Conner Roulette would avoid the Wheat Kings comeback after a 5-4 Blades win in overtime.

Dec 7th VS Prince Albert: The Wheat Kings close out their midweek trip in Prince Albert Wednesday night. These two clubs met last Friday with the Wheat Kings coming out on top 5-4. It was a game where the Wheat Kings had a 5-2 lead after two but the Raiders would storm back to score a pair and gain momentum heading into Wednesday night's matchup in their barn. The game was physical with Charlie Elick forced to leave the game in a stretcher after a collision and then a heavyweight tilt between Matthew Henry & Terrell Goldsmith. December 2nd's game was the first time the Wheat Kings were able to score 5 or more goals in a game, 3 or more goals in the 2nd period this year and the first win for Head Coach Marty Murray.
