A look at the final day of the SJHL/MJHL Showcase
After a thoroughly eventful opening day of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League/Manitoba Junior Hockey League Showcase, early action on the second day suggests the pace of play may have actually amped up even further overnight – if that’s even possible.
In the first game of the day, the SJHL’s Team Schwartz met the MJHL’s Team Garbutt hoping to respond from a tough 4-3 loss in the shootout Monday, and avenge the loss.
Coming out hot right out of the gate, team Schwartz wasted no time, making it 1-0 not even three minutes into the opening period thanks to Nipawin Hawks’ forward, Jaxon Wiebe’s first of the showcase.
Following the game’s opening tally, Yorkton defenceman Tyson Janzen would also notch his first goal, making it 2-0 before the end of the period.
