North Stars aim for bounce back in round two against Bombers
Coming off a 5-2 loss last night to the Flin Flon Bombers, the Battlefords North Stars return to action tonight for their second of back-to-backs against the Bombers this weekend, again taking place at the Whitney Forum in Flin Flon.
The North Stars are 24-12-8 through 44 games heading into Saturday night. With 56 points, the team sits third in the Global Ag. Risk Solutions Division, thanks to a Broncos win last night that saw Humboldt take a 4-3 overtime win over Notre Dame to leapfrog the Stars in the standings.
The victory moved the Broncos just a single point up on the Battlefords for second in the division. The Stars however, still hold two games in hand on Humboldt.
For Flin Flon, with their 5-2 win Friday night over the Stars, the Bombers remain the hottest team in the league heading into Saturday night’s contest, having won 8-straight games.
