PRINCE GEORGE — It’s not quite do or die but it’s a huge game Tuesday night for the Prince George Spruce Kings.

The Kings host the Penticton Vees for Game 3 of their best-of-seven opening round series at Kopar Memorial Arena.

Prince George dropped games one and two in Penticton on the road over the weekend by identical 3-0 scores though the club is still confident they can fight their way back into the series.

“I thought we played two solid games against Penticon. They’re a good team and we kept the score pretty close and we were in the games, and that’s what we want. We want to be in the fight going into the third period and we’ve been setting ourselves up pretty well,” said defenceman Evan Bellamy.
