The Granite City Lumberjacks defeated the Alexandria Blizzard two games to one in their best of three NA3HL playoff series last weekend, setting the stage for this weekend's second round series with North Iowa.

The Bulls are 7-1 against the Lumberjacks this season, but 'Jacks play-by-play announcer Ryan Sanders says they aren't the only team North Iowa has handled this season.

Sanders adds that the Bulls having home ice advantage could be a major factor in how the series plays out.

North Iowa features a potent offense that features a top line who combined to finish 1-2-3 in NA3HL scoring.

Hear more from Sanders on this weekend's series below. The Lumberjacks and Bulls play Friday, Saturday and Sunday (if necessary).
