Stars stick to game plan, edge Bruins in Estevan
What a difference 48 hours made for the Battlefords North Stars.
Wednesday night, the defending Canalta Cup champions came out lethargic following a five-hour bus ride and were drubbed 5-1 at the hands of the Notre Dame Hounds.
This saw the Stars facing the possibility of dropping three in a row for the first time since October of 2015. But Battlefords hit the ice with speed and energy to defeat the Estevan Bruins 5-4 at Affinity Place Arena Friday night.
“On Wednesday night some guys just tried to do a little too much and we didn’t stick to our game plan,” Brandon Heck, Stars head coach and general manager said. “It was a much different story tonight.”
