Chris Phillips returns to Prince Albert for Wall of Honour induction
Chris Phillips last played a game for the Prince Albert Raiders halfway through the 1996-97 season. But now that he’s returned to P.A. to be inducted into the Raiders’ Wall of Honour, it feels a lot more recent than that.
“It felt pretty cool walking back in here,” Phillips said while being interviewed in the Raiders’ dressing room. “In some respects, it kinda felt like yesterday.
“I drove around a little bit around town yesterday. A lot of things have changed or I didn’t remember but a few things I remembered as well. Had a few flashbacks when we were driving around.”
Before the Raiders take on the Lethbridge Hurricanes at the Art Hauser Centre on Saturday at 7 p.m., Phillips will join the wall as a player. In the builder category, the Raiders will induct Roger Mayert to the wall. Voice of the Raiders Trevor Redden caught up with Mayert here in his latest column.
