Stars return home for huge matchup with Klippers
The Battlefords North Stars are in action again tonight for part two of their back-to-back home-and-home showdown with the rival Kindersley Klippers, in a matchup taking place tonight at the Civic Centre.
The North Stars are coming off a 4-2 win last night over the Klippers that moved the team into second place in the Global Ag. Risk Solutions Division and just two points back of Kindersley for first within the grouping.
Stars’ goaltender Joel Grzybowski is expected to get the start once again tonight, following a terrific performance that saw the 19-year-old Hafford, Sask., product turn aside 31 of the 33 shots he faced Friday, including 15 in the first period alone, and another 11 in period three.
The Stars will be looking for more of the same from their goaltender tonight against a Klippers’ club that will no doubt be motivated to return the favour in their role of hopeful spoiler for the Stars’ first game out of Christmas at home in the Battlefords.
