A run-and-gun shootout didn’t go the way that the North Battleford Comprehensive High School Vikings had envisioned last Thursday night.

The Melfort Mustangs continued their winning ways on Tuesday at the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League’s Showcase tournament in Saskatoon.

Last November, the Estevan Bruins scored four unanswered goals in the final six minutes of the third period to pick up a wild 8-6 win over the Battlefords North Stars at the Civic Centre.

A potent power-play propelled the Battlefords North Stars back into the win column Sunday in Saskatoon.

For the first time since Feb. 24, the Battlefords North Stars have lost a Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League game.

Kaleb Dahlgren played the hero for the Humboldt Broncos as he scored the tying goal and the shootout winner to lead the Broncos to a 4-3 shootout win over the Notre Dame Hounds in Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League action in Wilcox on Sept. 17.

The Melfort Mustangs are starting to stand out from the pack in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League standings.

After losing their first two games of the season to the Humboldt Broncos in overtime and in a shootout last weekend, the Notre Dame Hounds took matters into their own hands Thursday.

The Humboldt Broncos and Melfort Mustangs continued their winning ways on the road Wednesday night, as both teams improved to 3-0 in the early stages of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League season.

It was more of the same for the North Battleford Comprehensive High School Vikings senior football team Friday, as they improved to 2-0 for the season with 30-13 road win over the Warman Wolverines.
