Westland Insurance Game Preview: Aug 23 @ Victoria

The Nanaimo Clippers travel to Victoria tonight to take on the Grizzlies for their first of four exhibition games they’ve got scheduled.

Head Coach Darren Naylor has narrowed his roster down to roughly 30-players and will be looking for players to really step it up tonight “This past week we’ve been able to see how players react to fitness testing, drills and mini-games but tonight is the real thing, playing against another 20 men who are also fighting for a spot on a BCHL Team” Naylor commented.

Here is the expected lineup:

T. Walton – S. Mahovlich – L. Ryan
C. Cavallini – E. Scardina – J. Bourne
K. Kovich – S. Donaldson – T. Samuelsen
C. Wetsch – T. Washe – B. Buhr

D. Mussio – A. Hansen-Bukata
T. LeDonne – R. Drazner
L. Visram – M. Kennedy

Zach Bennett looks like he will get the start in net.
