The Okotoks Oilers and Brooks Bandits always seem to face each other in the playoffs, and that's led to a great rivalry between the two clubs.
The Oilers and Bandits are squaring off against each other again this post-season, and Okotoks is back home after gaining a split in the first two games of the series.
The Bandits took Game 1, 3-2, and the Oilers returned the favour in Game 2, beating the Bandits with the same score."It's a hard rink to play in and at the end of the day, you know, if we could get a split in that rink, we'd definitely be super happy," he said. "But, you know, it's just one game and it's still a long series here, but we're excited about it and if we can stick to our game plan, good things can happen."In Game 2, Ty Yoder ended up scoring the winning goal with six minutes left in the game.He says it's exciting to be back home with the series and explains what happened on the game-winner.
"It's kind of an exciting thing, right? We've always created this great rivalry against them," he said. "I believe they enjoy playing against us and it's just one of those ones that over the past six or seven years, it's just one of those when the two teams get together, it's going to be good hockey."Puck drop for both games will be at 7 p.m. at Centennial Arena in Okotoks.
