DAUPHIN, MB - The Dauphin Kings near the halfway point of February and continue to battle for home ice advantage in the MJHL Playoffs.

In case you missed it last week the Kings dropped two of their three games. First a 4-0 loss to the Swan Valley Stampeders. That was followed by a 7-5 defeat to the Oil Capitals in Virden. Dauphin did close out their week strong with a 5-1 victory over the Monarchs in Winnipeg.

This week the Kings have three more contests. It starts Tuesday when they host the Northern Manitoba Blizzard at Credit Union Place. Then the Kings are home to the Winnipeg Monarchs on Friday before they go to Winnipeg to play the Blues on Saturday. Dauphin will also play a rare Monday nighter on February 16th when they visit the Waywayseecappo Wolverines for Louis Riel Day.

The Kings enter this week with a record of 24-20-1-0 on the season. They are second in the MJHL's West Division, two points up on Neepawa with two extra games played.
