Victoria B.C. - The Victoria Royals continue their final road trip of the regular season this week, facing the Kamloops Blazers on Tuesday, March 18, with puck drop set for 7:00pm at the Sandman Centre. They will then take on the Kelowna Rockets the following night at 7:05pm at Prospera Place.

Tuesday's match will be the eighth and final meeting of the regular season between the Royals and Blazers, with Victoria holding a 4-2-1-0 record. The last time the two B.C. Division clubs met, on January 17 and 18, the Royals defeated the Blazers in both contests.

This past weekend, the Royals met with the Vancouver Giants for the final time this regular season in a home-and-home series. After dropping Friday's game 3-1 in Victoria, the Royals defeated the Giants 4-3 in Langley the following night. Teydon Trembecky netted two goals and an assist in the win, while Markus Loponen netted the game-winning goal.
