Kings of the road in Merritt

by Staff of the Prince George Citizen

It takes seven hours to get to Merritt, then on Friday, it's another two hours to Vernon, where the Kings play the Vipers Friday night. Assuming road conditions are fine, it's then a five-hour trek to Trail, where the Kings face-off against the Smoke Eaters Saturday night. The game will be over at about 10 p.m., then it's a 13-hour overnight trip home after that.

Kings rookie centre Jordy Christian, with nine goals 14 assists and 23 points, will try to move into the top-10 in BCHL scoring. He currently ranks 12th. The 18-year-old native of Warroad, Minn., plans to attend St. Cloud State University on scholarship next season.
