Moving start to season in Broncos home opener
There was only one game scheduled for opening night Wednesday in the SJHL.
All eyes were on the city of Humboldt as the Broncos opened their new season against the defending league champions, the Nipawin Hawks.
Wednesday’s game was the first regular-season hockey action for the Humboldt Broncos since the April 6 bus crash that claimed the lives of 16 people and injured 13 others within the Broncos organization.
The game, along with the pre and post-game ceremonies were broadcast live on TSN for the nation to see, in addition to the sold-out crowd that attended the game in person at Humboldt’s Elgar Petersen Arena.
