Brandon Wheat Kings defenceman Gio Pantelas smiles after arriving at practice at Assiniboine Credit Union Place on Thursday afternoon just as the team was stretching at the end. The draft eligible blue-liner flew back to Brandon from Lethbridge after competing in the CHL USA Prospects Challenge. He and the Wheat Kings will be in action tonight against the Prince Albert Raiders. (Perry Bergson/The Brandon Sun)
