No sense bragging that the Pats beat the lowly Blades again. By the looks of it there will be a long time before the Blades do anything to anybody the way this Franchise is running , I can see them folding in Saskatoon in the very near years to come. Their whole system is completely shot.
Yes Saskatoon sucks but a win is a win and now the Pats are 4 points ahead of 2nd place in the East division. I say brag away!
Nice to see Klimchuk back on the goal sheet.
Victoria will be a good test tomorrow. I hope I can make it to the game.
I knew that Pats were going to win last night in Saskatoon. A inside source told me they would

Yes, of course, the sorry Saskatoon franchise. Have the Pats had a crowd over 5000 this season?
