The Grandview Comets are only two days away from their biggest game of the season so far.

They take on the Carman Beavers in the third game of the Provincial Championships, and so far it's been a successful Championships for the team.

Both games they've played in resulted in wins and the team was missing some of their top players during the games.

"We've definitely played really good," said TJ Warkentin, Comets Captain. "We didn't really know what to expect in either game. We've gotten stronger each period. Even though we've been missing some guys, we continue to battle hard and now we're in a really good spot heading into the third game."

A win on Saturday would clinch top spot in the round-robin, which means they would play on Sunday in the Championship Final.

The Beavers are 1-1 through their first two games, but TJ knows it won't be easy.

"We know they have some really good players," said Warkentin. "The biggest thing will be knowing when those players are on the ice. Our confidence is really high right now after the first two games. We know we can play with any team in Manitoba, so we're going to just focus on our game and the rest will work itself out."

The Comets and Beavers hit the ice on Saturday night at 7:15 at the Bell MTS Iceplex.

Sunday's Senior A Provincial Final is an afternoon affair at 2:30, also at Bell MTS Iceplex.
