HURRICANES WELCOME RAIDERS – Daniel Johnston and the Lethbridge Hurricanes (2-4-0-0) welcome Anthony Bardaro and the Prince Albert Raiders (6-0-0-1) in Western Hockey League action on Tuesday night.

The Hurricanes are coming off a pair of weekend losses on a U.S. Division road trip, having dropped a 4-1 decision to the Tri-City Americans on Friday before falling 4-2 in Spokane on Saturday.  The Hurricanes are 1-1 through their first two home games.  Johnston has a goal and two points through his first three games this season.

The Raiders skated to a 5-3 win over the Kootenay Ice in Cranbrook on Sunday for their sixth straight triumph, and currently occupy first place in the overall WHL standings.  The Raiders are a perfect 4-0 on the road this season while outscoring their opponents 19-10 in the process.  Bardaro has points in each of his last six games.

It’s the first meeting of the season between the Hurricanes and Raiders.  The teams split four meetings last season.

Elsewhere on Tuesday night, Trent Ouellette and the Regina Pats (3-5-0-0) host Ty Rattie and the Portland Winterhawks (4-3-0-0).

The Pats are coming off a 2-1 setback in Swift Current on Saturday night, snapping a modest two-game winning streak.  Ouellette has scored four goals through his first eight games this season after netting five in 70 games last season.

The Winterhawks dropped a 4-2 decision to the Warriors in Moose Jaw on Saturday night, falling to 1-1 through the first two games of their East Division road trip.  Rattie netted his first goal of the season in Saturday’s loss in Moose Jaw.

In Swift Current, SK, Coda Gordon and the Swift Current Broncos (3-0-3-1) host Tyson Ness and the Red Deer Rebels (3-5-0-1) on Tuesday.

The Broncos edged the visiting Regina Pats 2-1 on Saturday after having thumped the Saskatoon Blades 10-1 on Friday night in Saskatoon.  Gordon (2g-6a) is one of four Broncos players with seven or more points this season.

The Rebels managed a 4-3 shootout win over the Warriors in Moose Jaw on Sunday, improving them to 2-2-0-1 through five games of their six-game East Division road trip.  The Rebels traded their former captain, Adam Kambeitz, to the Saskatoon Blades on Tuesday in exchange for a Bantam Draft pick and forward Christian Stockl.
