The Airdrie Thunder blew away the Banff Academy Bears on Friday, October 21, winning 9 to 1. 

Team Thunder couldn't be accused of not taking enough shots in this game as the beleagured Bears goaltender was badly overworked in all three periods, stopping a total of 50 shots. The game was controlled completely by the Thunder, and the Bears were never a threat to the high flying Airdrie scorers. 

The Thunder next face the Coaldale Copperheads tonight in Coaldale. Thunder coach, Frank McIvoy, says this game will be more of a challenge for the team:

Game starts at 8:30 pm.
