The Nanaimo Clippers ran the gauntlet in BCHL action last week with three games in three nights, and ended up winning two of them.
The Clippers defeated the Victoria Grizzlies 4-3 on Thursday, Jan. 28, on the road, then edged the Powell River Kings 5-4 in overtime Friday at Frank Crane Arena before falling 4-1 to the Surrey Eagles on Saturday at Frank Crane.
In the first game of the week, Keighan Gerrie led the Clippers with two goals against the Grizz including the game-winning marker with about a minute and a half left in the third period. The next night against the Kings, it was Andrew Noel who was the hero with his game-winner one minute into overtime on a power play.
GAME ON … The Clippers are getting ready to play three games in three days again this coming weekend, all on the road. The Shipmen start with a matchup Friday, Feb. 4, against the Chilliwack Chiefs, then they face back-to-back games against the Eagles.
