North Stars aim to bank win against Millionaires
The Battlefords North Stars have been rolling as of late, having won four of their last five games, and surrendering only one regulation loss over their last seven, heading into this evening.
On the other side of the coin, the Stars’ opponent tonight, the Melville Millionaires, are coming off a 3-2 overtime win over the Weyburn Red Wings Wednesday that spelt as much relief as it did joy. The victory snapped what was a six-game losing skid, with all six loses coming on a nightmarish road trip dating back to the league showcase, and carrying on throughout the backend of September and early going of October.
Despite their recent success, the Battlefords North Stars will see some key changes up front for tonight’s game against the Millionaires.
Offensive juggernauts MacGregor Sinclair, and Matthias Urbanski, will be joined on the team’s top line by versatile forward, Ryan Gil.
