UPDATE: Tonight's game has been postponed due to weather conditions. A make-up game will be rescheduled soon.

-------------------------------------------

The Portage Terriers look to add to their win total tonight when they take on the Neepawa Titans at Stride Place.

The Terriers escaped Swan Valley with a victory after losing their previous contest to the OCN Blizzard.

Portage has won three of their last five, while Neepawa has won four in the same stretch. 

Neepawa has won all three contests between the squads this season, with two wins in regulation and a third in a shootout.

Parker Korman, a former Titan, notes what they need to change to get a victory in this matchup.

"We've got to start taking them more seriously, but I think with the right mindset going into it, we'll have no problem."

Ashton Fishley scored three goals on their latest road trip and describes what he feels needs to happen on the ice to get the win.

"The boys need to come out firing. We need to win our battles in the corners, win our stick checks, just work as hard as we can, and I think we'll have success. Guys get pucks on net, just throw everything we can at their goalie, and one will go in for us."

Tonight's puck drop is 7:30 p.m.
