Over the course of the last week, the Gold Wings have been working hard to gain momentum for playoffs.
We had two back-to-back games against the Regina Rebels, playing at home and in Regina. We came out of the double header with two wins.
Our away game in Regina was a hard fought battle that had to go into overtime to crown a winner, but in the end we were able to finish on top of the Rebels.
On the weekend most of our girls went to Zones for the Sask. First Program and represented our team well. They will be excitedly waiting the results of those who have been successful in moving to the next round.
We played our last regular season home game against Notre Dame on Tuesday night. During the game, all fans were encouraged to wear black and gold.
It has been crazy how fast this year has gone by already! As a team our goal is to win out our last three games and hopefully finish in third place for home ice advantage first round. Our plan is to win out in league play and earn our spot into the Esso Cup. It would be an exciting way to finish our season.
Remember to come out and get your Esso Cup tickets! They are still available at the Weyburn Review and Weyburn This Week office at 904 East Avenue. Continually, on Friday, February 12, we are volunteering our time at the Radville Nats game and are looking forward to getting out as a team and cheering them on. We are looking forward to selling 50/50’s, organizing a chuck a puck, selling door admission as well as working the concession. We will also be handing out Gold Wings stickers to all kids in the crowd.
We then have some time off for the February break. We will return mid-week and are looking forward to a fun exhibition game against the Peewee Gold Wings. These young minor hockey teams are extremely supportive of our team and we love having the opportunity to spend time with them.
Then on February 19 and 20, it will be back to action with our last league games in Swift Current. Swift Current is a strong team and will be coming out for the win. Keep reading for the results of those games! The end of the road to the Esso Cup is near!
