The Prairie Thunder suffered their first loss this season, 7-4. It was a tough night all around starting with Rob Guinn night. There wasn't a dry eye in the house.

It was one of the best come from behind rallies the P.T. have ever had. Down 4-1 and eventually won 5-4. It was one sweet win.

Ryan Ludzik took a turn in net this Friday for his first home appearance. He did well, but the scoring wasn't there as the P.T. lost 4-1. Their record of 4-3 puts them in the middle of the pack.

Our Prairie Thunder are getting back on track with a couple of wins of late. This 1-0 shutout was just what the doctor ordered. And it was even a power-play goal that gave them the win.

A wide-angle lens is often under utilized by sports photographers. But the unique perspective is 2nd to none. Enjoy!

From a fan's perspective, this game was one of the worst. But you can't tell it from the shots that came out of it. These are some of the best on this page.

Zach and Cody night, the teddy toss, 2 fights, and a power play game winning goal. Does it get any better than this?

Don Parsons broke the all-time goal scoring record for a professional minor hockey league player tonight. 678 goals isn't just a lot of pucks, it's a tribute to his effort and dediction.

The game was exciting and fun, but our boys came up on the short side of a 3-2 OT loss. A point in the standings is still a point in the standings.

This was one of the most fun games this season. Our home town boys picked up a win in a 9-player shoot-out. Rookie, Mike Kusy, got the goal; Ludzik got (and deserved) the win.

The Prairie Thunder set a franchise record of 8 consecutive games without a loss by winning another one in a shoot-out. And yes, that Fankhauser behind the bench as Skalde got tossed in the 2nd period.

This was a must win game that didn't happen as the P.T. fell in O.T. Time is running out, but there's still hope to make the playoffs.

It was Shriner Night at the Coliseum and the older boys got to take a lap around the ice. However, the younger boys came up short in a 3-0 loss to the perennial powerhouse of Fort Wayne.

Coach Skalde allowed me the chance to catch some of the pre-game action in the locker room just for the fans. So enjoy a behind the scenes look at the P.T.

Not many games left after this one. Is Booras going to hit 100 points for the season?

This is the last home game for 2009 and the boys finished it off well. Three fights and a win in a shootout will keep the fans thinking about next year right through the summer.
