The Prince George Cougars will be kicking off round one of the WHL Playoffs at the CN Centre against the Spokane Chiefs tomorrow night (Friday).
Cougar forward Kooper Gizowski said the team is looking forward to starting the best of seven series at home.
“Game one is probably the most important out of any series.”
“You want to get that little bit of an advantage, and I think for us it’s an important series, important two games when you start at home, and obviously with the whiteout and fans we have, it’s going to be an exciting and I think we’re ready to bring the energy.”
“We’re ready to bring the energy.”

Terik Parascak noted a need to get momentum going early in the series.
“We know what they’re all about, I mean, they got a lot of good players on that team.”
“I think they’ve underperformed kind of what they wanted this season, and I think for us just get hard on them early, and just apply all the pressure we can in our building and just get on top of them.”
“I don’t think theres a better barn or city to be in come playoff time.”
