North Stars face divisional test in Klippers tonight
Coming off a tough 2-1 shootout loss at the hands of the defending SJHL champion Nipawin Hawks, the Battlefords North Stars continue to run the gauntlet tonight at home against division-rival Kindersley Klippers.
The Stars enter this evening with a 2-2-1 record over their last five games, contributing to a 5-4-2 record overall since the turn of the calendar to November.
The Stars rank fifth in goals for, and fifth in goals against in the SJHL, as they head into tonight’s showdown, their second in two nights against an elite matchup defensively.
After a night off Saturday, Stars’ goaltender Joel Grzybowski will return between the pipes for the black and silver, coming off a 31 stop performance Sunday night against Weyburn that saw the veteran goalie post a .969sv% and solidify the victory for his team last weekend.
