Provincial C Zone 5 Champions the Pincher Creek Huskies hosted Picture Butte at the MCC Arena on Friday night, February 17.

The game was a no-contest affair, with the Huskies dominating the play throughout and scoring at will.  The scoreboard was stopped at 10-0, the clock was allowed to run through the second and third periods, and there was no real break between the last two periods.

The Huskies kept up a relentless offence, and their defense created a wall that Picture Butte rarely penetrated enough to take a shot.  One penalty each, little in the way of solid checking, the game also was devoid of the usual fisticuffs that tend to dominate the last period of one-sided games like this one.

The Huskies lost to Vauxhall on Tuesday, February 14 by a score of 4-2. They will get a chance to make it up in a home game scheduled for Sunday, February 19, 1:30 pm at the MCC Arena.

Their second Provincial  game is scheduled for Tuesday February 21, 8:00 pm at the MCC Arena.

The Huskies will be competing in the Midget Provincial Tournament, to be held at Millet in March.
