The CanElson Drilling Estevan Bruins will open their Sherwood Conference
Semi-Finals with the Yorkton Terriers tonight in Yorkton.
The
Bruins and Terriers haven't seen a lot of each other in the second half
of the season. There only matchup against each other was on February 5
in Estevan. A lot has changed for the Bruins since Christmas with the
additions of Dylan Smith, Alex Cote and a healthy Calder Neufeld so the
stats during the Bruins and Terriers should be taken for a grain of
salt.
The Terriers have only lost once at home in regulation
this season, but that one loss came at the hands of the Estevan Bruins
back on October 30. Even though that win came back at the beginning of
the season, the Bruins have a lot of confidence that can win inside of
Yorkton.
The last two years the Bruins have experienced
heartbreak in Game 1 of the Conference Semi-Finals. Two years ago, the
Bruins lost in Yorkton after giving up a lead in third period to the
Terriers. While last season the Bruins had a one goal against Weyburn,
before the Red Wings scored with 27 seconds left to tie the game to send
it to overtime before the Bruins lost the game on a bad bounce.
You can catch tonight's game on CJ1280 and discoverestevan.com beginning at 7:15.
