Final Score: Vancouver 3 – Prince George 2.

All three stars of the game were Giants, Mirwald, Damian Palmieri and Thorpe.

On Friday March 17, St. Patrick’s Day, the Giants will host the Everett Silvertips at Langley Events Centre.

For the game, the team is bringing back a special sweater that they’ve worn once before.

Back on November 10, 2016, Giants wore one-of-a-kind jerseys in honour of Pat Quinn’s induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame. The G-Men defeated the Prince George Cougars that night 4-2, led by multipoint efforts from James Malm and Radovan Bondra.

The jerseys feature a clover on the front as a tribute to “The Big Irishman.”

This will be the second last home game for the Giants as they wrap up their regular season in preparation for the playoffs. The game will also feature a Happy Hour with $5 beer at the Original 16 Founder’s Corner from 6PM-8PM and there will be a Chuck-a-Puck in the second intermission.
