Wednesday Roundup!

We will start in Notre Dame, where the Hounds ended their losing streak with a big 4-3 victory over the visiting Flin Flon Bombers. Steven Robinson scored the winning goal against his former team just over the half way point of the third period. Chris Bratina, TJ Ahvenniemi and Dieter Gillanders also scored for Notre Dame. Travis Janke added two assists while single helpers went to Brendon Dault, Tanner Vandesype, Marc-Andre Nadeau, Roy Farrer and Eddie Gale. The Bombers, playing without Pierre - Luc Boucher, got their goals from Tommy Castonguay, Mitch Dougall, and Reid MacLeod. Robert Beaudry, Brennan Cox, Dennis Kubat and Dustyn Clegg added assists for the Bombers who drop to 9-6-0-1. The Hounds, now 3-14-1-0, got 19 saves from Andre Guay. Calvin Bartel was back in the lineup for the Bombers tonight and stopped 28 of the 32 shots he faced. The Hounds are 10 points behind Kindersley for the final playoff spot in the Sherwood but this win should give them some confidence moving forward.

In Melville, the Millionaires used a big third period to dispose of the Battlefords North Stars 6-2. The line of Bryant Dyke, Jarret Fisher and Daniel Hope combined for nine third period points to secure the win for the Mils. Dyke finished with 2 goals and an assist, Fisher had a goal and two assists and Hope added three assists. Adam Tuffs, Matt Kinnunen and Dion Campbell also scored for the Millionaires.

The Stars woes continue as they drop to a league worst 2-14-1-1.

The La Ronge Ice Wolves paid a visit to Melfort tonight and the hosts were not very hospitable as they doubled up the Wolves 4-2.

His counterpart, Brian Kaval, made 26 saves for the Wolves. The Mustangs improve to 9-7-0-0 with the win and now trail second place Flin Flon by one point.
