The last time the Trail Smoke Eaters won a regular season game in Penticton was November 6th, 2019. The drought is over after 1,605 nights. Teagan Kendrick turned in a terrific 47-save performance, backstopping the Smokies to a 4-2 triumph at the South Okanagan Events Centre. He held the Vees at bay after the home […]
The Smoke Eaters four game winning streak came to an end on a fateful Friday night in Salmon Arm. The 4-1 setback will likely also mean the loss of goaltender Teagan Kendrick. He was assessed a match penalty for a goalmouth incident just over 12 minutes into the second period and could be facing a […]
The Smoke Eaters and Spruce Kings generated just five shots in the first period and scored five goals in the second, as Trail battled back from a pair of one-goal deficits to beat Prince George 5-2 at Cominco Arena. The floodgates opened at 3:45 of the middle frame when Spruce Kings defenseman Ben FeFranc’s shorthanded […]
It was a solid road victory after a 4-1 Friday night win in Cranbrook. Trail carried the play for much of the first period, but didn’t hit the scoresheet until Lucas Lemieux sent a sneaky seeing-eye snapshot from along the boards, at the left point, into the short side of the net past Bucks goalie […]
The Smokies had their first shootout of the 2023-24 season and picked up their first shootout win.

The Express goalie kept […]
It could be the biggest night of the season at Cominco Arena.

Regardless of the outcome, one fan will walk away with a MEGA 50-50 jackpot which will start at […]
Interesting, bizarre, frustrating and dominant. There are probably many more words to describe Friday’s 4-2 Smoke Eaters win over the visiting Merritt Centennials. Trail dominated the first two periods, outshooting the visitors who were riding a three-game winning streak 33-10 over the first forty minutes, but only two shots got past Centennials netminder, Karlis Mezsargs. Jason […]
Josh Schenk’s second goal of the night, just past the three minute mark of the third period broke the tie and stood up as the winner in a 4-3 Trail Smoke Eaters victory over the visiting Salmon Arm Silverbacks. The Cominco Arena crowd of 1,329 witnessed another entertaining and chippy affair as the Smoke Eaters registered their first victory of […]
The Smoke Eaters open week two of the regular season tonight against the Salmon Arm Silverbacks. Trail had two topsy-turvy 5-4 overtime losses last weekend to Cranbrook and West Kelowna.
