Lads kickoff B.C. Premier in Burnaby


The Island Champs get their first taste of CDI B.C. Premier league competition this Saturday when they travel to Burnaby to take on the Burnaby Lakers. Kick off will go at 2:45 at the Burnaby Lake Sports Complex (The venue could change due to weather conditions). Hopefully the Barnard Cup Champ Vikes will teach a certain hockey team that practices in Burnaby how to win a game.

The Horns Prediction
This one will come down to the field conditions in Vancouver. If the fields a quagmire than it favours Burnaby, as they will likely be able to grind the pace down and keep it close. The Vikes, however, are playing at full strength as their national sevens players don't head to New Zealand until next week. I like the Vikes to carry the momentum over from last December's Barnard Cup victory over James Bay and come out flying.
