The Brandon Wheat Kings are a loss away from being eliminated from the WHL playoffs.

 

Last night, the Calgary Hitmen won their third-consecutive playoff game over Brandon with a 4-3 win.  Kris Foucault scored twice for Calgary in the win, who take a three-games-to-one series lead.

 

Game 5 in the series is back in Calgary on Friday night. 

 

Brandon is set to be the host team for the Memorial Cup late next month.
