FINAL PATCHAT OF THE SEASON
The Week That Was
Trailing 2-0 in their Eastern Conference Quarter-Finals series against the Brandon Wheat Kings, the Pats did not find a friendlier locale in Westman Place in Brandon. It looked like the Pats’ fortunes may change in Game 3 when they jumped out to a 4-1 lead, but saw it slip away in a heartbreaking 5-4 loss. With their season on the line Friday in Game 4, the Blue and White struggled to muster an offensive attack and would see the game stretch out in the third period as their season came to an abrupt end with a 5-1 loss in Brandon.
Saying Goodbye
The Pats bid three overage players farewell as they graduate from the WHL. Recent additions Boston Leier and Jesse Zgraggen along with Dyson Stevenson who played all 252 of his career games with the Pats all step forward to the next stage of their lives. Congratulations to all three on great WHL careers and good luck in your future endeavours.
Thank You
The 2013-14 Regular Season was an amazing ride that saw the Pats surpass many expectations on the way to clinching the Regular Season East Division pennant. None of it is possible without our fans, parents, billets, volunteers, sponsors and media partners. Thank you for your continued support of the Regina Pats and we’ll see you in September!
