The Blades' are back at home tonight to welcome the 7th overall pick at last year's NHL Draft, Dylan Cozens, and the Lethbridge Hurricanes for First Nations Night presented by Dakota Dunes Community Development Corporation.

The Hurricanes are third in the Eastern Conference, but that hasn't stopped the Blades from claiming the season series going 3-0-0-0 in their first three games against Lethbridge. Both Saskatoon's netminders Nolan Maier (.930 SVS%) and Koen MacInnes (.954 SVS%) have performed well against the 'Canes, as have forwards Zach Huber (2G) & Jayden Wiens (2G), along with defenceman Aidan De La Gorgendiere (3A). Need to Know for First Nations Night presented by Dakota Dunes Community Development Corporation:

Tonight is all about recognizing and celebrating the traditional indigenous culture throughout the evening, and showcasing the proud heritage of our treaty 6 territory. Arrows to Freedom of Confed dancers & drummers will be performing throughout the evening. The Canadian National Anthem will be performed in Cree by Nehiyawewin Cree Language and Culture Choir.

Tonight's Frozen Pond Special:

Post-Game Autograph Zone: Tonight's featured player of the game is rookie sensation Colton Dach! Don't miss this opportunity to grab an autographed Dach poster and meet Colton after the game.

Dach has been incredibly hot since December, with 15 of his points and all of his goals coming since December 7th!

DYK? Dach wears #34 because, like his older brother Kirby, he wanted to wear #7 but that jersey is retired by the Blades. Kirby chose to wear #77 for two sevens instead, while Colton took #34 because 3+4 = 7.
