Medicine Hat @ Kootenay Game #68

The Kootenay ICE will host Medicine Hat tonight.
This is the 6th and final meeting of the year, the ICE lead the season series 3-2.
This will be their 3 meeting in the last 2 weeks as the clubs split a pair of games in Medicine Hat in late February.
ICE are coming off a win in Edmonton and are 5 points ahead of Medicine Hat and Red Deer.
Tigers beat Moose Jaw in their last game on Wednesday.
The ICE have 5 games left in the season and including tonight 4 of them are at home.
The ICE have lost their last 3 home games.
The club has a magic number of 8 points to clinch 4th place in the Conference.
Any combination of the ICE earning points and the Rebels not earning points would give the ICE home ice advantage for the first round of the playoffs.
Tigers also have a chance to finish as high as 4th.
Head to Head Dustin Sylvester has 4 goals and 9 points and Brayden McNabb has 7 points.
Tigers’ Tristan King has 3 goals and 9 points and Linden Vey has 7 points.
