Seattle Thunderbirds

The Thunderbirds hit the season's stretch drive in a playoff spot. What will it take to clinch their postseason berth?

Seattle leaned on goalie Roddy Ross Sunday night to improve its playoff positioning over the trailing Prince George Cougars.

Thunderbirds GM Bil La Forge responded to comments made Saturday night by Everett Silvertips coach Dennis Williams.

The Thunderbirds dropped a game with the Everett Silvertips Saturday after the game went off the rails in the second period.

The Thunderbirds ran into a hot goalie Wednesday night in Prince George and would lose 2-1 in the shootout.

After falling behind early, the Thunderbirds came back Tuesday night in Prince George only to be done in by third-period penalties.

Behind a big night from goalie Roddy Ross, the Thunderbirds beat Portland Saturday night in a game they never led until the shootout.

The Thunderbirds made things closer than perhaps they should have been Tuesday night but were able to beat an injury-riddled Tri-City team to improve their playoff standings.

The Thunderbirds earned a valuable point Saturday night after storming back from a 5-2 deficit against the Portland Winterhawks. They would eventually fall to Portland in the shootout.

The Thunderbirds improved their playoff position with an overtime loss in Kelowna Friday but felt they could have done more.
