AAA Stars fall twice to Gens, officially can’t make playoffs
The AAA Stars will not qualify for the playoffs this season, after this weekend’s action in the Saskatchewan Midget AAA Hockey League saw the eighth place Saskatoon Blazers win and the AAA Stars lose twice.
This is the first time they have missed the playoffs since the 2011-12 season, when they finished last with a 7-35-2 record.
Heading into the weekend, the Stars had 30 points, which was five points back of the eighth place Sakatoon Blazers.
But Saskatoon beat the first-place Regina Pat Canadians to improve to 37 points, while the Stars fell 5-4 and 4-1 to Moose Jaw on the road, meaning they now cannot mathematically make the playoffs with only two games left.
