Lethbridge At Spokane Chiefs

Wed., Feb. 14, 1996

Faceoff: Tonight at 7:05 in the Arena.

Records: Spokane (37-17-3), Lethbridge Hurricanes (25-28-2).

Tickets:$6, $8, $10, $12.

Radio: KGA-AM (1510) 6:05 p.m. Hockey Tonight with Craig West. Chiefs coach Mike Babcock 6:20 (approximate).

Key players: Spokane: C Darren Sinclair (27 goals, 37 assists), C Jason Podollan (30, 17), D Sean Gillam (10, 45), GK David Lemanowicz (3.13 goals-against), D Hugh Hamilton (7, 43), C Trent Whitfield (27, 41), LW Dmitri Leonov (27, 43). Lethbridge: C Byron Ritchie (43 goals, 41 assists), GK David Brumby (3.18 goals-against), Travis Brigley (29, 37), Mike Josephson (22, 29), Kirby Law (13, 35).

At a glance: Ex-Chiefs coach Bryan Maxwell returns but don’t look for an exchange of candy and flowers on Valentine’s day. Hurricanes are a rugged bunch and the Chiefs won’t be pushed around in their building. With a slim lead and 14 games to go, Chiefs could move a step closer to their first West Division championship. They were second in the division race to Kamloops in ‘91, when they went on to win the Memorial Cup.
