Tri-City Americans News Release


Americans vs Rockets

Saturday, October 5 | Kennewick, WA. | Toyota Center

Start Time: 6:05 p.m. PT

LAST GAME: The Americans generated high-quality scoring chances all game, but goaltender Dawson Cowan turned in a stellar performance as Tri-City fell 4-1 in Spokane last Saturday. Brandon Whynott scored the lone goal for the Americans, his third of the year and second on the power play. Both teams had five power plays in the game with the Chiefs scoring twice to the Americans one.

VS KELOWNA: Saturday is the first of five meetings against the Rockets during the 2024-25 season. The first three come at the Toyota Center before two games in Kelowna, just nine days apart, in February. Tri-City is looking to buck their recent trend against the Rockets as they've struggled to a 2-11-1-2 record against Kelowna since the 2019-20 season.
