Head-2-Head:

Abbotsford outshot Calgary 41-27 on Friday night, but they were in tough against Wolf, who looked dialled in from the outset of the game.

Calgary was 1-for-3 on the powerplay (1/3) and Abbotsford went 1-for-7. (1/7)

The Wranglers and Canucks met 12 times last season, and Calgary took the season series with eight wins, four losses. (8-4).

WRANGLERS PLAYER TO WATCH: Adam Klapka

Keep an eye on No.43 on the ice tonight, and at 6-foot-7 he’s easy to spot.

Klapka has four points on a current three-game point streak and has three goals in his last two games at the Abbotsford Event Centre.

He has scored the game winning goal in back-to-back contests in Abbotsford, dating back to last season.

ONE TIMERS:

  • Brady Lyle scored his first since joining the Wranglers last night in Abbotsford. Lyle had a career-best 31 points last season with the Springfield Thunderbirds and has his first point of the 2023-24 campaign.
  • Clark Bishop scored his first goal of the season in the Wranglers first game and is just one point shy of 100 career AHL points. (99).
