Pulling away from the parking lot of the Art Hauser Centre on Friday morning, the Prince Albert Raiders watched as sirens and horns from a line of first responders sent them off to the second round of WHL playoffs.
It’s something that’s not a surprise, though, given the wave of green jerseys dotting ‘Hockey Town North’ these days, according to interim head coach Ryan McDonald.
“You see videos from elementary schools with kids wearing Raiders jerseys and chanting, ‘go, Raiders, go,’” said McDonald. “Just the support that our community has for us and how passionate our fan base is for us is truly inspiring for our group.”
The Raiders are one of eight teams left battling for the Ed Chynoweth Cup, after rallying from a 3-1 series deficit to the Edmonton Oil Kings in the opening round of WHL playoffs.
