But the Vees have three points due to one overtime win, 2-1 over the North Stars, and one shootout loss, 4-3 to Brooks.

The North Stars are in last place right now, but they aren’t that far behind and there are still two round robin games remaining. They have a single point right now after the overtime loss to Penticton on Saturday night followed by the 5-3 loss to Portage.

The goal totals so far have also reflected how tight things are, as can be seen below.

Three of the five games played have been one-goal games and another was a two-goal game because of an empty netter.

On Tuesday, the North Stars take on the Brooks Bandits in the afternoon at 3 p.m. Saskatchewan time and then in the evening the B.C. teams renew their rivalry as Chilliwack and Penticton go head-to-head for the 10th time this season, as they went seven games in the league finals, which Penticton won in overtime 1-0.

Battlefords final round robin game will be against Chilliwack on Thursday afternoon at 3 p.m.
