It was the perfect ending for Day 1 of the SJHL Showcase for the Estevan Bruins as they beat the Humboldt Broncos 5-3 in the final game of Day 1 of the Showcase.
The Bruins got the only goal in the first when Tanner Froese scored his 5th of the season to make it 1-0. The Bruins and Broncos only combined for 12 shots in the first period.
Things would open up in the second with 5 goals, the Bruins scored three of them as Dylan Smith, Derek Whitehill, and Matt Brykaliuk all scored. Brykaliuk would get his second of the night late in the third to ice the game for the Bruins.
It was a breakout game for Brykaliuk who now has scored 3 goals in his last 2 games, in training camp a lot of the Bruin veterans were impressed with Brykaliuk and some thought he could end up being the best 1993 player for the Bruins.
I spoke to Brykaliuk after the win against the Broncos.

I also caught up with Josh Jelinski the new Bruins Captain after the game. I talked to him being named the Captain and as well the Showcase weekend.

The Showcase weekend is really a great event with all of the SJHL personalities inside of one rink. I wasn't able to make it to the rink for the most part on Friday, but I'll likely be at the rink on Saturday and Sunday.
Just want to give a quick mention on what great ambassadors the Estevan Bruin players really are, after earning a hard earned win the Bruins went down to the Legion Hall to take part in the United Way Telethon. The boys sang a couple of tunes, but more importantly showed their support for a great cause.
