The Kootenay ICE will play game #4 of 8 straight on the road Friday as they visit the Seattle Thunderbirds.
It’s the first and only meeting of the year.
Over the last 6 years the ICE have won 10 straight regular season games against Seattle.
Dustin Sylvester and John Negrin are expected to arrive in time to join the ICE after representing the WHL against Russia.
ICE have won 5 in a row including 3 straight road wins.
Seattle is 3 games below .500 but have played only 6 of their 26 games at home.
Sylvester and Andrew Bailey have 7 game point streaks while Ian Barteaux has a 5 game point streak.
For the 1st time since December 4th 2006 the ICE will play against the Thunderbirds in Seattle. The ICE won that game 3-2 as Curtis Billsten scored the game winner.
