WE’RE GOING TO MAKE SOME NOISE

Friday night January 6th, 2023 Heat President Darryl Adamson exclaimed the above on the inaugural “Heat Wave” on HockeyTV during an on air interview with the voice of the Heat Steve Smyth. It was a response to what the team is prepared to do for the rest of the season, and early signs have fans […]

THE HEAT CLOSE OUT 2022 WITH A BANG!

It’s been a while and during the away time 5 games were played. For the 3 contests prior to the Christmas break we will be brief, which should make many readers happy. Game 1 on the 13th was a face off with the Revelstoke Grizzlies. To this point in the season the Heat had won […]

TWO TALES OF WONDER ABOUT TWO GAMES

AND THE HEAT GOES ON AND OFF

Another week has passed and the Heat have been off and on in more ways then one.  For the citizens of the area we have enjoyed power outages due to  apparent substation deficiencies, playing havoc of course with daily activities.  On the ice it’s another week of lose one win one, which is a habit […]

THE HEAT UNWRANGLED AFTER BEAR ENCOUNTER

For starters you actually can’t get unwrangled but it is possible to lose to Wranglers.  Doing it after beating the KIJHL league leading Revelstoke Grizzlies  twice makes it hard to fathom on the best of days. Just when we assumed they had found the recipe for success they found a way to deliver badly burnt […]
