Weyburn Red Wings split last two home games

The Richardson Pioneer Weyburn Red Wings recorded a win and a loss in their last two home games at Crescent Point Place

WEYBURN – The Richardson Pioneer Weyburn Red Wings recorded a win and a loss in their last two home games at Crescent Point Place, with a 4-1 win over the Flin Flon Bombers on Thursday evening, and a close 2-0 loss to the Nipawin Hawks on Saturday night.

In the victory, the Bombers scored their lone goal in the first period, then it was all Weyburn in the second and third periods.

Ryley Morgan scored on the power play, assisted by Nick Kovacs and Ty Mason, then Jakob Kalin scored with assists to Nolan Henderson and Max Monette.

In the third, Kovacs got on the score sheet, assisted by Kalin and Carter Briltz, and Elijah Anderson scored unassisted on the power play late in the game to seal the win.

Dazza Mitchell was in net for the Wings, saving 31 of the 32 shots on net.

On Saturday night, the game was very tight and close, with no scoring in the first and second periods with both teams getting good scoring chances.

The Hawks scored late in the game, with 1:25 left on the clock, so the Wings pulled Mitchell from the net for the extra attacker, but the Hawks scored on the empty net to clinch the 2-0 win.

Mitchell saved 27 of the 28 shots he faced in goal.

The Red Wings were in Yorkton for a Tuesday night game, and will host the Notre Dame Hounds on Friday, Feb. 17, and Yorkton on Saturday, Feb. 18.

The Wings will then play Notre Dame in Wilcox on Monday, Feb. 20, a pair of games in Flin Flon on Feb. 24 and 25, and back in Notre Dame on Feb. 28.

There will be two games in Kindersley, on March 4-5, and in Humboldt on March 8, before their final two regular season games will be held at home on March 9 and 11 versus Notre Dame and Estevan respectively.
