After losing Game 5 of the Canalta Cup final to the Nipawin Hawks by a score of 3-1, the Bruins will face potential elimination for the first time in this playoff run.
The Bruins scored first with a goal by Michael McChesney at 2:24 of the first period at the Centennial Arena in Nipawin, but weren’t able to dent the twine behind Nipawin’s Declan Hobbs the rest of the game. The Hawks’ Josh McDougall scored a power play goal later in the period, and then the Hawks added a pair in the second period to take control of the game.
The Bruins will likely see their third straight sellout crowd Sunday for game 6 as there were only 100 seats and 300 standing room left for the general public to gobble up Saturday morning.
The office will open up at 9 a.m. Saturday as the tickets are sold.
If Game 7 is necessary, it'll take place Tuesday in Nipawin.
