What an exhibition Friday night is billed to be.

With three NHL draft picks expected to dress -- Mario Lucia (Minnesota Wild), Steve Fogarty (New York Rangers) and Mike Reilly (Columbus Blue Jackets) -- the Penticton Vees are set to play a B.C. Hockey League pre-season contest with the Coquitlam Express at the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex, 7 p.m.

Also, Express alumnus Kyle Turris of the Phoenix Coyotes is slated to be on hand to drop the puck on the opening face-off and sign autographs.

On Saturady, the Port Mood Black Panthers battle the Ridge Meadows Flames in a Pacific International Jr. B hockey league exhibition game 7:30 p.m. at the Port Moody Recreation Complex.
