A rare Thursday night game in the Heritage Junior "B" Hockey League as the High River Flyers host the Banff Academy Bears.

The Flyers are riding a five game losing streak, while the normally bottom of the standings Bears, are right in the middle of the playoff chase with a 5-and-4 record.

Flyers Coach Bruce Cowie says the Flyers are close to turning things around, but it all comes down to the players.

"I think the guys just need to find a way to win. We played two damn good teams on the weekend in Coaldale and Red Deer. Red Deer's right up there and going in with seven minutes left in the game and we're still up 3-2. So basically they (the players) just have to learn how to finish teams off now."

The puck drops at 7 o'clock at the Rec-Plex.
