Athletics and Canucks battle for top spot once again

Dec 6, 2018 | 6:45 AM

The Grande Prairie Athletics and Dawson Creek Canucks renew hostilities tonight in Grande Prairie.

The top two clubs will meet for the third time this season, but it will be the first time in the Swan city.

The two West division rivals have split their two contests so far this year, with the Canucks claiming the first meeting 3-2 in overtime, and the Athletics winning the last match-up 8-5.

Grande Prairie has been the only team in the NPHL to beat the Canucks so far this season.
