Klippers and North Stars Square Off Again

VS


Your Pregame report is brought to you by:




Opening Look :

For the third time in this young SJHL season the Kindersley Klippers and the Battlefords North Stars will clash. Both teams come into tonight's contest riding a wave of confidence. After losing their home opener Battlefords has won 3 straight contests including a 3-0 shutout victory in their last game against the La Ronge Ice Wolves. Kindersley will enter tonight's home game with some weight off their shoulders after picking up their 1st home W in 3 tries this past Friday night. Kindersley's offense was in full flight on Friday but they need to make sure they don't have a repeat performance like they did after a big win on opening night. It's somewhat hard to believe this is already the third meeting of the season for both clubs.


Who To Watch:

For Kindersley
1. Brennen Bosovich - He will suit up for the first time in a Klippers uniform this season. He brings a crafty skill set that should mesh well with the Klippers offense.

2. Taylor Duzan - He is coming off a big game on Friday night. Duzan had a hat trick, and is known for going on big scoring streaks when hes clicking.

3. Troy Gedney - Gedney had an impressive opening game for Kindersley. His strong play may have or have not have have been infalted due to the strong team game the Klippers played. We will see what Gedny brings tonight.


For Battlefords

1. Brody Luhning -
Luhning was returned to the North Stars by the Regina Pats last week. He instantly makes their defense better and alot more dangerous offensively in the process. Luhning had 33 points in 50 games last season for the stars.

2. Blake Tatchell - I am not just saying this because I drafted him with my first overall pick in the SJHl media pool. Tatchell clearly is one of the favorites to win the SJHL scoring title, and he is coming off his first multi point game of the season Satuday against La Ronge.

3. Dillon Forbers - This is a guy I thought was a standout for the Stars in the home and home series against the Klippers to start the season. I am interested to see how he has come along with a few more games of SJHL experience.

  1. as a fan of the klippers this is the worst display of coaching this town has seen. rocky is not a good fit here. this game tonight yea the ref was aginst the klippers but as a coach rocky needs to stop crying at the ref i feel embarressed being a fan. just move on the players are trying there best and dont need there coach being negative on the bench. as a fan it doesnt look like klipper hockey when he is on the bench. The team wins 7-1 when rockys not there do the math pretty simple to see

  2. Oh no, not you again! The coaching staff is just fine. The Klippers are very, very young. They only have 4 20 year olds, last year the team had 9. Humboldt has 10. It's 4 games into the season, don't panic yet.

    Please don't tell us you want the previous guy back???

  3. i agree with the second poster rocky has a very young team that is going to bond together over the next year or 2, yes we might be in a bit of a rebuilding stage these kids stick and mold together we will have a great team for the next few years so leave the coaching staff alone unless you can come in and do a better job? all we hear is how bad of a coach rocky is, give him support instead of complaining every god damn game. we arent getting blowen out 7-0 or anything like that we have been losing close games look at our gf-ga were scoring way more than were letting in. once again go klippers go
