Former Chiefs ready to face old teammates

CHIEFS, WHL

Spokane is on a three-game road trip that starts tonight in Vancouver against the top-ranked Giants.

But Saturday's game, against the expansion Chilliwack Bruins, will be the most emotional for some, in large part because two former Chiefs, Myles Stoesz and Jim Watts, play for the Bruins.

Jeff Bunch talked with the pair, and his story in today's S-R relates the ups and downs the two have had with their new team.

Jeff has more on his blog, including links to two Vancouver stories concerning Michael Grabner, the Canucks top pick in the NHL draft.
