Since I moved to High River 18 or so months ago I've become a big supporter of the High River Flyers.

They really struggled last year but down the stretch they made a valiant effort but came up short.

This year's different.

Maybe it's Tyson Avery settling into his 2nd year as head coach, or it could be #14 Davis Sheldon scoring a pail full of goals, maybe it's the Gala Dinner they had when they brought in Clint Malarchuk as a keynote speaker who squeezed tears out of grown men with his heartfelt stories or filling the room with laughter with some of his crazy stories from the NHL.

Or maybe it was their concerted effort as an organization to get involved in the Santa Claus Parade, or perhaps helping with the Kraft Hockeyville Kraft Cup game.

The list goes on and on but it really comes down to their hearts and character and caring about High River and giving back whenever asked.

So, now I'm asking you to come out and support the team in their playoff push. 

They swept the Strathmore Wheatland Kings 2 game to none and they're down 1 game to none against the always tough Coaldale Copperheads and could use the extra man in the crowd tonight, Friday Feb 23. 

Puck drops at 8:00 p.m.

Go Flyers Go!
