Raiders ready for physical affair with Broncos
Through three games this season, it’s become apparent the Prince Albert Raiders and the Swift Current Broncos don’t like each other very much.
Coming into Tuesday night’s meeting in Swift Current, the Raiders have picked up four of a possible six points against the Broncos, earning a regulation victory, an overtime loss, and a shootout loss so far against the number-two team in the Eastern Conference.
Raider forward Justin Nachbaur said the bad blood has been evident throughout the season.
“It’s our kind of game. Everybody in the room likes the intensity that we have against Swift. It’s a rivalry game,” Nachbaur said. “Everybody likes to battle and likes a little chippiness; it’s just part of the game.”
