After picking up four of a possible six points in their last three games the OCN Blizzard (10-13-1)head into what could be a season defining home and home series with the Swan Valley Stampeders (12-13-1).
The Stampeders have a four point lead on the Blizzard for second place in the division but OCN holds two games in hand, if the Blizzard can sweep the series OCN will be tied with the Stamps in points while holding their two game advantage, if OCN loses both they'll drop eight points back.
Swan Valley is without Cole Holowenko for the foreseeable future as the former WHL netminder is out with a leg injury, Nathan Armstrong has taken the starters role while Head Coach Erik Pedersen's son Lasse Pedersen is the back up.
Alex Henry will finish serving his three game suspension over the series and will be eligible to return on Friday night against Waywayseecappo.
