It was a quiet week for the Bruins as they split their two games last week. On Tuesday, the Bruins hammered the Notre Dame Hounds 9-2 and then the following night the Bruins were defeated by Yorkton 9-0. The two games capped off a busy stretch for the Bruins where they played 5 games in 6 nights.
Player of the Week
Calder Neufeld
The league leader in goals had a big game against the Notre Dame Hounds on Tuesday as he picked up his third hat trick of the season in the Bruins 9-2 win. Neufeld was on a roll last week as he also picked up a hat trick in the Bruins win in La Ronge on Oct. 22. It seems like Neufeld has recovered from his groin injury from earlier this month and is back to scoring at a torrid pace.
Rookie of the Week
Austin Yano
The rookie defenceman picked up a goal and three assists in the Bruins win over Notre Dame. Yano has the second most points for rookie defenceman this season. Yano continues to gain more confidence for the Bruins as he solidifies himself as the Bruins quarterback on the powerplay. As the season continues, Yano's role will likely increase.
Unsung Hero of the Week
Eric Baldwin
Baldwin spent the last week playing both forward and defence. Baldwin brought some energy to the forwards when he played up front and was rewarded with a goal and an assist in the Bruins win over Notre Dame. With Michael Hengen expected to get back in the lineup this week, Baldwin is likely going to remain on the blue line for the foreseeable future, but his play last week gives Keith Cassidy another option down the road.
The Bruins will have three games this week, the Bruins host Notre Dame in Carlyle in Wednesday, then they face Melfort in Estevan on Friday and they cap of the week with a road game in Melville on Saturday which will be broadcasted on CJ1280 and discoverestevan.com beginning at 7:20.
