Chiefs rock in outdoor game
The Rockstar Outdoor Classic was a wild success off and on the ice for the Spokane Chiefs.
Not so much for the Kooteany Ice.
The first-ever Western Hockey League game to be played outdoors, before a standing room only crowd of 7,075 at Avista Stadium, was an 11-2 romp by the home team, just hours after the Ice had registered a 6-2 in in Cranbrook, B.C., to start this little home-and-home showtown between two of the best teams in the league.
Next Friday’s game in Spokane should be a dandy game.
The three stars were all Chiefs, 1, Steve Kuhn (goal, 2 assists); 2, Tyler Vanscourt (2 goals) , 3, Blake Gal (2 goals, assist).
