It was a busy Saturday in Sports in Estevan, the Bruins were in La Ronge for the second matchup with the Ice Wolves, the High School Football team were in Semi-Final action in Moose Jaw against Vanier and MMA took over Spectra Place as Hard Knocks Fighting 16 was held last night.
Starting off with the Bruins.
Calder Neufeld broke out of a mini slump with a natural hat trick in the second period as the Bruins defeated the Ice Wolves 4-1. Neufeld once again leads the SJHL in goals with 14, Dylan Smith had a pair of points to regain the SJHL lead with 26.
Ryan Ostertag had a goal and an assist and Brandon Stone made 47 saves to pick up the win for the Bruins.
The Bruins wrap up their three game road trip in Melfort tonight.

The ECS Elecs Football season came to an end yesterday as the Elecs were defeated by the Vanier Vikings 43-3.
The Elecs played their third game in the last 8 days and ran out of gas against the Vikings. Vanier scored on three of the opening four possessions to take a 21-0 lead.
The Elecs responded with a 30 yard field goal from Kyle Hovind to cut the lead to 21-3 but the Vikings would add a touchdown to make the score 28-3.
On the first play of the second half, the Vikings would intercept Kolby Fleury's pass and returned it to the one yard line, the Vikings would punch it in to make it 35-3. The Vikings would add a late touchdown to make the final 43-3.
The Elecs will be honored next week at the League Finals as Elijah Watchman claimed the Defensive player of the year award. The third straight year an Elecs player won the award.
I spoke with Elecs Head Coach Marco Ricci after the game.
