Hicketts will wear the “A” in Game 2 in Brandon, MB, on November 11th, while Bowey will have the letter on his jersey on November 10th in the opening game in Saskatoon, SK. HOMETOWN HEROS: The Victoria Royals are coming off a successful homestand in which they went 3-1-1-0, picking up seven points and averaging three goals per game. In nine games this season at the Save-On Foods Memorial Centre, the Royals have posted a record of 5-2-2-0. Victoria’s five home wins ranks second in the Western Conference behind the Kelowna Rockets who are undefeated at home with a 6-0-0-0 mark. VALLEY LIFE: During the 2013-14 season the Victoria Royals posted a 5-2-0-1 overall record against the Kelowna Rockets including a mark of 4-0-0-0 at Prospera Place. Since moving to Vancouver Island the Royals are 11-10-0-3 against the Rockets with a record of 7-4-0-1 in Kelowna. IN THE CREASE: Coleman Vollrath has started the last seven games for the Victoria Royals, the longest active starting streak for a goalie in the WHL. In this span Vollrath has gone 5-1-1-0, while posting a .928 save percentage. Vollrath's lone regulation loss came against the Brandon Wheat Kings, the top ranked team in the Eastern Conference. SONS OF EDMONTON: Royals’ forward Brandon Magee and Rockets’ forward Tyrell Goulbourne are both Edmonton locals and have played against each other in the Alberta Major Bantam Hockey League (2007-09) and the Alberta Midget Hockey League (2009-10). In three seasons between the two leagues, Magee played a total of 96 games notching 167 points (77g – 90a), while Goulbourne played 91 games and marked 44 points (21g – 23a). POWERPLAY PRECISION: In tonight’s contest both the Royals and Rockets are ranked in the top five in the WHL in powerplay percentage. Victoria is fifth in the league at 24.1%, while Kelowna is first with a powerplay percentage of 31.0%. Victoria has scored on the powerplay in seven consecutive outings, and in 10 in their last 12 games going 15-52=28.8%. Austin Carroll and Travis Brown lead all Royals’ skaters with six powerplay goals apiece and are also in a four-way tie for the league lead. GONE STREAKING: The Royals have five players who have taken the opportunity to add to their stats lately. Axel Blomqvist is leading the charge scoring 13 points (6g - 7a) in his last six games. Brandon Magee has 11 points (3g - 8a) in all six games he’s played in this season, while Austin Carroll is in the midst of a six game point streak where he has nine points (3g-6a).
