The Bisons gave up early goals in the 1st and 2nd periods, but by the end of the 2nd period had found their form to tie the game at 2-2. One goal came from a veteran (Brett Stovin) and one from a rookie (Devon Skoleski). The stage was set for a good 3rd period, however the Dinos took control with three unanswered goals. Jordan Papirny got the win (with 14 saves) and Byron Spriggs took the loss (with 34 saves). The rematch goes Saturday at 2:00 MDT, 3:00 CDT.

The series does not start until Saturday night, but I found some links about these two. Each has a season preview from a local paper. And we have a disturbing story from the CBC. I fear you'll see men with lipstick in women's sports. If they've had the operation, that's one thing. If not, that's another.

I wonder how many Cougar fights there were on Friday night? Most were likely more closely contested than this one. The Banjo Cats had kudos for their recruiting class, however that may have been just glorified catnip. Colton Kroeker had two goals for the Bluegars and Tyler KIng had two for the Green Cougars. The rematch is Saturday at 3:00 MDT, or 4:00 CDT.

Whenever a team makes a trip to the Town of Bedrock, a split is considered a decent weekend. So that aspect of the weekend should make Bison fans very happy.

However, was this a case of capitalizing on a shaky goaltender? Matthew Greenfield stopped just 11 of 15 shots before an empty-netter closed the scoring.

Oddly, this was the night of the players whose last name starts with "S". Skoleski, Skrumeda, and Stovin led the Bisons to a 3-0 lead by the 2nd period. Sydora started in place of Spriggs in goal, and stopped 32 of 35 to get the "W". Sheen (with two) and Shearer scored for the Dinos, and Stovin's empty-netter closed the scoring. The only non-S contribution was from Brooks, whose 3rd period goal gave the Bisons a 4-2 lead which lasted until the end of the game.

Stovin and Skoleski also scored on Friday night. I'd like to see them focus on Stovin's offensive side this year.

The Bison scratches were skaters Kamerin Nault, Jonah Wasylak, and Thomas Lenchyshyn, and goaltenders Justin Paulic and Tyler Brown (who's not expected to play much, if at all, this year). It looks like they lined up like this:

Defence:
25 Skrumeda 27 Doerksen
3 Christensen 2 Henry
23 Dwyer 11 Dyck

Forwards:
12 Zajak 15 Jameson 21 Brooks
9 Franko 28 Stovin 8 Bolton
26 Leblanc 10 Skoleski 22 Leipsic
18 Armour 16 Martin 14 Freeman

When PP and PK were out there a fair bit, the 4th line and Leblanc had very little ice time.

Next weekend the Bisons are off to the Excited States (North Dakota and Omaha to be precise), before opening at home against the Alberta Evil Monkeys on October 12th and 13th. The Dinos, meanwhile, will muse over their pending extinction whilst relaxing with a bye week.

Indeed, it is hard to sweep a team. The Bluegars had it all their way on Friday night but this matinee was a lot tougher. Last season, the Banjo Cats seemed to throw in the towel once the losses were piling up. Let's see how they handle this season. They acquired some better players but are still at least a notch behind most CW teams. In this one, pair of PP goals kept Regina in it. Riley Morris stopped 19 of 21 to get the win, and Dawson MacAuley stopped 33 of 36 to suffer defeat. 3rd year defenceman Jesse Lees scored the OT winner, his 2nd point of the night.

It is never easy to sweep on the road, even in Lethbridge. So the T-irds must be thrilled with the sweep. In an interesting stat, over the series the Hørny Ønes were 1-for-11 on the power play and UBC was 5-for-10. Both sides switched goaltenders, giving a rookie his debut. Patrick Dea stopped 29 of 31 for the win, and Taz Burman stopped 45 of 48 at the other end. All season long we will be contemplating what a massive upset it would be to see Lethbridge upset a conference champion when they host the U-Cup.

It was funny that every other team in the CW had two games under their belts before these two teams even stepped on the ice for game 1. This was a special night for the Apes. As defending conference and national champions they had banners to raise. They were scratching their armpit with one hand whilst holding a banana in the other, taking an occasional break to swing from the other banners at the Clare Drake Arena.

The celebratory mood seemed to lift the Monkeys early on, as they mounted a 2-0 lead with goals in the opening minute of each of the 1st and 2nd periods. From there it was all downhill, as five different Mutts helped put the boots to the Primates. In net, 2nd year Taran Kozun answered the call with 30 saves on 32 shots for the win. Meanwhile, Brendan Burke took the loss with 27 saves on 32 shots.

Of note, the Monkeys dressed just 19 players due to a rash of injuries.

The Monkeys were down to 16 skaters for this rematch. However, the head organ grinder must have offered plenty of bananas to the survivors to get them going for this one. The turning point IMO was during a 2nd period PP situation. The Mutts were down two and went on the PP, during which time the Evil Monkeys scored twice. Game Over. Zach Sawchenko got a turn in goal for the Apes, and faced just 15 shots in claiming the win. Taran Kozun started once again for the Mutts, stopping 30 of 35 shots. Taylor Cooper had 2 goals and an assist to lead the Monkey offence. So the Mutts had to be satisfied with a split, a quick drink from the toilet, and a bus ride back to Saskatown.

This is a bye week in the CW. But the Bisons, Lethbridge, Mount Royal, and Alberta are headed south for games against various NCAA teams. All trips are Saturday/Sunday format.

For the Bisons, they are off to play two teams from the NCAC. It is a strong conference. Last year UND defeated UNO in the quarter-finals. Omaha is coached by Mike Gabinet, former coach of the NAIT Ooks. UND is ranked 11th in one poll, and 12th in another.

In this week's news, there are three stories linked from GoBisons.ca. First, rookie Devon Skoleski was the male UofM athlete-of-the week, based on scoring in both games last weekend. Second, the 123 Bison athletes to be recognozed as Academic All-Canadians beats the previous UofM record of 117. The total includes 8 hockey players off last year's squad. And third, we have a preview story which includes a blurb on the Bison Broads raising their national championship banner on Friday night.

Around USports, Dinos' coach Mark Howell will coach the All-Stars against the Team Canada Juniors in December. And UNB was ranked #1 in the first Top Ten. Oddly, York got votes after going 0-3-0 on their trip to Sask.

The Fighting Hawks, or Suddenly-Peaceful-Sioux, built a 2-0 lead, lost it in the 3rd period, then won it on a PP goal in overtime. That's the abridged version.

The UND website is not what it used to be. At one time they provided links to legible boxscores or summaries, video highlights, and a game story or two. Now their team links for live stats were trash. In some ways, it was even worse than that pathetic rubbish put out by USports. The version of the live stats page was totally different if viewed on a desktop, tablet, or cell phone. There were no lineups on the desktop version, for example.

At the end of the day, I would recommend the College Hockey News (CHN) boxscore linked, and the UND game story. The Bison Twitter account also had updates, as shown in this picture:


The CHN site also displayed the usual line combinations, and the complete line-up:

Forwards:
21 Brooks - 15 Jameson - 12 Zajac
22 Leipsic - 28 Stovin - 8 Bilton
29 Wasylak - 10 Skoleski - 26 LeBlanc
18 Armour - 16 Martin - 14 Freeman

Defence:
3 Christensen - 2 Henry
25 Skrumeda - 24 Lenchyschyn
23 Dwyer - 11 Dyck
5 Paradoski

Goal:
35 Spriggs (1 Paulic did not play)

Scratches:
4 Bilton - 9 Franko - 27 Doerksen
30 Brown - 34 Sydora

Byron Spriggs stopped 52 of 55 shots, to be named 1st star. Uniquely, both Bison goals were scored by players of the hard-nosed variety, Thomas Lenchyschyn and Jonah Wasylak. This was Wasylak's first game back in over a year.

The extra defenceman dressed for the Bisons was Brandon Paradoski. He went to St. Paul's then played Junior B for the Selkirk Fishermen and then MMJHL for the Seven Oaks Raiders. I guess that since Sean Christensen has done so well, the team is somewhat less afraid to dip into the MMJHL for a depth player. I'll have to do full profiles of the new recruits brought in after the recruiting season had apparently ended.


This photo of the overtime winner also gives us a glimpse of the new Bison dark uniform.

The Bisons ventured further south for game two of the weekend and had a tough night in Omaha. Brett Brooks scored their only goal. Byron Spriggs did not suit up, leaving goaltending to be split between Justin Paulic (stopping 28 of 32 shots) and Dasan Sydora (stopping 22 of 24 shots).

Here's how they lined up:

Goaltenders:
1 Paulic - 34 Sydora

Defence:
2 Henry - 25 Skrumeda
5 Paradoski - 24 Lenchyschyn
23 Dwyer - 11 Dyck

Forwards:
21 Brooks - 15 Jameson - 12 Zajac
22 Leipsic - 28 Stovin - 8 Bilton
29 Wasylak - 10 Skoleski - 26 LeBlanc
18 Armour - 16 Martin - 14 Freeman

Scratches:
3 Christensen - 4 Nault
9 Franko - 27 Doerksen
30 Brown - 35 Spriggs

Hopefully those scratches will recover in time to face the Monkeys in next weekend's home opener, Friday and Saturday at 7:00 p.m.


Paulic played two periods, Sydora played the 3rd.

No shootouts in the NCAA. After the OT was done, this one was called a draw. The Monkeys went with Kenny Cameron in goal. They were outshot 16-3 in the 1st period, but the game was still scoreless. In the 2nd period, the Monkeys scored two early goals and outshot Air Force 16-11. However, they could not hold the lead and left the USA kissing their sisters.

The Rutherdump is disappearing and the whole CW, not just the UofS, is thrilled about that. Rust falling from the rafters ought to have been the final straw years ago. The big difference as far as hockey is concerned is that the ice surface will be full size, not the mini-ice the Huskies have been used to having. Will this prompt the recruitment of smaller players, and better skaters? I also see that it will have indoor plumbing, a rarity in Saskatown.

This week in the CW features a quirk in the schedule in that all the teams who went 1-1 in the opening round face one another, the two 2-0 teams face one another, and the two winless teams also face one another.

In this matchup between the Bisons and Evil Monkeys, the teams (on the surface) have had similar runs the last two weeks. Both started the regular season with a split against a team with a pre-season victory over their opponent (Calgary split with Manitoba and beat Alberta in pre-season, and Sask did the same in reverse). Both were 0-1-1 in the USA last weekend (albeit the Monkeys had a tie, not an OTL).

One issue to observe is both sides' line-ups. Last weekend the Bisons were without Zach Franko and Kamerin Nault from their first line, and the Monkeys were without their whole top line. With so many new players, an dmost coming from Junior A, the Bisons lack depth in comparison to the Monkeys.

In disappointing news, Findlay's “Tuesday Morning Skate” and podcast are now at the Usports site, instead of CUSN. (Why couldn't it be at both?) Since the Usports site is trash, it might be hard to get it. We'll see.

This will be an interesting match-up between two sides who took last weekend off. Both were impressive on the Friday night of the opening weekend before crashing to Earth on Saturday. Sask had the best pre-season in all of the CIS (USports). Is Calgary a true contender, as pundits speculate? Or are they better viewed in a group with Manitoba, UBC, and MRU?

This is a golden opportunity to get a win! IMO, Regina has recruited fairly well the last two years and are not terrible. They're just not as good as the top 6 teams in the CW. Lethbridge had some off-season turmoil but it seems like they are not far off of last year's pace.

This is the battle for first place! However, unless the schedule changes to give these teams lots more games against Regina and Lethbridge, I don't see this holding. Realistically, these two are aiming to solidify a playoff berth and then shoot for home ice advantage in the quarter-finals.

After the conference bye week and the end of non-conference play, the teams of the CW got down to some hotly contested games Friday night. Included was a dandy game at the Wayne Fleming Arena where a boisterous crowd, which included the Engineering Symonized Marching Band, cheered the Bisons on to a win over the Evil Monkeys. The Herd is now 2-1-0 and tied for 2nd place, whilst the Primates are 1-2-0 and tied for 5th.

Here's how they lined up:

MANITOBA

35 Spriggs (34 Sydora)

25 Skrumeda 24 Lenchyschyn

16 Pawlenchuk 13 Owre 26 Sanford

Scratches:
1 Burke 9 Legault 18 Baillie
19 Magee 21 Kimmett 40 Lineker
52 Charif

For the first time in a while, Alberta iced a full roster. Also, the Bisons got back a lot of injured players.

The Monkeys amassed a 2-0 lead in the 1st period with a pair of PP goals by Cole Sanford. The preponderance of penalties favoured Alberta. The Bisons turned it around in the 2nd period. Devon Skoleski (with his 3rd) scored on the PP and Brett Stovin (with his 4th) tied it up, as the Bisons outshot Alberta 12-10 in the period.

Midway through the 3rd period, Nick Zajac scored his 1st of the season and suddenly it looked like the Bisons could do it. The Monkeys threw a lot of bananas at Spriggs, but he was quite up to the task. The shots were 38-28 favouring Alberta. The three stars were Spriggs, Zajac, and Sanford.

This was a tight battle to christen the new Merlis Belsher Place in Saskatown. So a shootout seems appropriate. I saw the ending on CanadaWest.tv after getting home from the Bison game. Lots of crazy penalties and aggressiveness. Saturday's rematch should be quite the tussle. Taran Kozun got the win (29 saves) and Jordan Papirny took the loss (46 saves). There were eight different goal-scorers.

The Banjocats scored with 93 seconds left to tie the game and there was much joy amongst the Feline Hillbillies. But the H0rny Ones Scored again with just 4 seconds left to claim the win. Lethbridge was only able to dress 16 skaters and two goaltenders. Garret Hughson made 31 saves to claim the win, and Dawson MacAuley had 28 saves in the loss. Lethbridge vaults out of the basement with the win, at 1-2-0, and Regina is 0-2-1.

After the conference bye week and the end of non-conference play, the teams of the CW got down to some hotly contested games Friday night. Included was a dandy game at the Wayne Fleming Arena where a boisterous crowd, which included the Engineering Symonized Marching Band, cheered the Bisons on to a win over the Evil Monkeys. The Herd is now 2-1-0 and tied for 2nd place, whilst the Primates are 1-2-0 and tied for 5th.

Here's how they lined up:

MANITOBA

Goal:
35 Spriggs (34 Sydora)

Defence:
2 Henry 3 Christensen
25 Skrumeda 24 Lenchyschyn
11 Dyck 23 Dwyer

Forwards:
21 Brooks 15 Jameson 12 Zajak
9 Franko 28 Stovin 8 Bolton
4 Nault 10 Skoleski 26 Leblanc
29 Wasylak 16 Martin 14 Freeman

Scratches:
1 Paulic 5 Paradoski 18 Armour
22 Leipsic 27 Doerksen 30 Brown

ALBERTA

Goal:
35 Sawchenko (31 Cameron)

Defence:
6 Craig 4 Kirichenko
5 Fram 22 Carroll
7 Lange 8 Rehill

Forwards:
36 Cox 12 Philp 27 Miske
37 Nickles 14 Kieser 11 Cooper
17 Hart 23 Clarkson 24 Tomchuk
16 Pawlenchuk 13 Owre 26 Sanford

Scratches:
1 Burke 9 Legault 18 Baillie
19 Magee 21 Kimmett 40 Lineker
52 Charif

For the first time in a while, Alberta iced a full roster. Also, the Bisons got back a lot of injured players.

The Monkeys amassed a 2-0 lead in the 1st period with a pair of PP goals by Cole Sanford. The preponderance of penalties favoured Alberta. The Bisons turned it around in the 2nd period. Devon Skoleski (with his 3rd) scored on the PP and Brett Stovin (with his 4th) tied it up, as the Bisons outshot Alberta 12-10 in the period.

Midway through the 3rd period, Nick Zajac scored his 1st of the season and suddenly it looked like the Bisons could do it. The Monkeys threw a lot of bananas at Spriggs, but he was quite up to the task. The shots were 38-28 favouring Alberta. The three stars were Spriggs, Zajac, and Sanford.

This was a tight battle to christen the new Merlis Belsher Place in Saskatown. So a shootout seems appropriate. I saw the ending on CanadaWest.tv after getting home from the Bison game. Lots of crazy penalties and aggressiveness. Saturday's rematch should be quite the tussle. Taran Kozun got the win (29 saves) and Jordan Papirny took the loss (46 saves). There were eight different goal-scorers.

After an extensive pre-season, every team in the CW has now hosted and travelled for a weekend series. The Bisons had a marginally sub-standard exhibition record, but a split in the Town of Bedrock followed by a split against the Evil Monkeys is the envy of most teams in Usports. All told, the Herd is tied for 3rd place with three other teams.

Regina, meanwhile, are not a bad team but the best they could manage thus far is an OTL in games against MRU and Lethbridge (the teams who were 6th and 7th last year). Being swept at home by the Hørny Ønes is not part of the recipe for success.

In the recent past, the Bisons have had the Cougars' number. The Bisons beat the Banjocats 5-2 in a September exhibition game, made to look close when the 'Cats scored a late goal. In 2017-18, the Bisons were 4-0-0, with Regina getting one point for an OTL. Over the past 4 years, the Bisons are 14-1-1 (Regina is 2-13-1) in head-to-head games.

Regina's top four scorers include two veteran defencemen: Tyler King (2-2-4) and Landon Peel (1-2-3). The other two are rookie forwards, Arthur Miller (1-2-3 in 3 games) is hoping to write a story called “Death of a Playoff Drought”, and Connor Chaulk (1-2-3) has done well. Last year's rookie-of-the-year, Zak Zborosky, missed the opening weekend and has one assist in two games. Goaltenders Dawson MacAuley (4th year) and Michael Herringer (2nd year) have split the duties thus far. They have both had their moments. Herringer wound up 4-12-0, 5.11 GAA, .863 S% last year. This year he's 0-2-0, 5.01 GAA, .833 S%.

At this early stage, four points gets a guy tied for 7th in conference scoring, and the Bisons have four forwards in that group. Brett Stovin (4-0-4) used to get mostly assists, veterans Brett Brook and Nick Zajac are both 1-3-4, and newcomer Keaton Jameson is 0-4-0. Another newcomer, Devon Skoleski, is off to a 3-0-3 start. Defenceman Lucas Skrumeda was off to a great start and also had somepoints (1-2-3 in 3 games) before being injured on a hit from behind last Friday.

When all is said and done, Regina will steal some points from various teams this season. The Bisons will hope it starts next week.

UBC is off to a 4-0 start, but this is the weekend where things get real. The Dinos knocked off the T-irds in last year's playoffs. I suspect that Bedrock U is on their way to a top four finish. However, they need to win series like this one to get there. The Friday game starts at 11:00 a.m. MDT, as part of a school promotion.

The Banjomutts' position in this series is akin to the Bisons' position in the Regina series. Having played Alberta and Calgary, they are off to a 3-1-0 start. But points lost here could damage them down the road in the race for a top-two finish needed for a bye to the semi-finals.

The Monkeys are vulnerable right now. In pre-season they split with UBC (albeit with an OTL) then split a 3-way round-robin against Calgary and MRU. In the regular season they split with Sask and Manitoba. The Bluegars, in turn, were swept by UBC and swept Regina. In this home-and-home series, it could be said that the Bluegars should feel the pressure to not just steal a point, but to get a split like everybody else.
