In the game of hockey, it usually serves you well if you have a short memory. For the Vernon Vipers, last night is something they'll look to learn from, but put out of their memory. The Snakes will look to regroup and refocus against a very tough Nanaimo Clipper team. One thing Vipers fans know is that Mike Vandekamp led teams are physical and very good defensively. They have great goaltending that the Vipers witnessed first hand back in October as Jayson Argue shut out Vernon by a score of 3-0. The Vipers will look to hand out redemption tonight at Kal Tire Place.
