Kings & Navigators look to push respective series to the distance

Feb 25, 2019 | 7:20 AM

The 1st round of the North West Junior Hockey League playoffs could come to an end Monday night.

Both opening round series will play Game 4 and the JDA Kings and North Peace Navigators will be looking to try and force the series to a 5th an final game.

The Sundown Oilfield Services Sexsmith Vipers lead their best of five series 2-1 with the JDA Kings following a 7-5 win in Game 3.

Sexsmith has won back to back games following a 5-1 loss in Game 1.

Face-off is at 8:00 p.m. in Sexsmith.

It is a similar situation in the other opening round series.

The Fairview Flyers are in the same situation in Game 4.

They host the North Peace Navigators with a chance to punch their ticket to the 2nd round of the post-season.

Home ice advantage has not been much of an advantage in the series, as the road team has won every contest so far.

Puck drop is also at 8 in Fairview.
