Victoria hosts Kamloops on Friday and Saturday
The Kamloops Blazers will wear their usual blue and orange Friday and Saturday night at Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre against the Victoria Royals. But maybe green and white should be their true colours. That’s because the Blazers are playing the Philadelphia Eagles’ game.
That’s why the Blazers, who have an automatic berth as host, have gambled their immediate to medium-term future on winning the Memorial Cup this year with one of the most monumental trades in Western Hockey League history. The Blazers this month sent a staggering 10 draft picks, including their first-round selections for 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026, to the Everett Silvertips for defenceman Owen Zellweger and forward Ryan Hofer.
This is not an enviable match-up for the Royals against three Blazers players from Canada’s 2023 gold-medallist world junior championship team this month in Halifax — Zellweger, Caedan Bankier and defending WHL and CHL MVP Logan Stankoven.
