Jr. Kings In Attack Mode

The Dresden Jr. Kings are looking to bounce back in its first round playoff series with Blenheim, as they host the Blades for Game 2 tonight.

Head Coach Rob Vanderydt says they have to create more scoring chances than they did in a 2-0 loss on Tuesday.

"I think we've got to shoot the puck a little bit more and attack the net a little bit more," explains the coach. "A shot on net's never a bad play."

Elsewhere, Essex is in Alvinston for the second game of their series.

The 73's came away with a 9-0 win in Game 1.
