Bruins vs Bombers For the First Time


It’s funny how a SJHL schedule works sometimes, the Bruins finished their season series with the Melville Millionaires on Tuesday and tonight they will meet the Flin Flon Bombers for the first time this season at the Whitney Forum.

Both teams are heading into tonight’s game fresh from victories; the Bruins defeated the Mils on Tuesday 3-1, while the Bombers beat the Melfort Mustangs 10-4. 

The Bruins have played a complete game in their last two wins over the Mils and Yorkton Terriers. All 12 forwards were productive for the Bruins, they got strong games from their young defencemen like Denin Boesch on Sunday and Tyler Poskus on Tuesday. And of course Steven Glass has been unbelievable for the Bruins making 30+ saves in both wins.

The Bombers have plenty of fire power up front as they’re lead by Riley Storzuk who has 41 points on the season. The Bombers have three other players who have already hit the 30 point plateau in Dylan McCombie and Brett Penner. The Bombers added another big piece to their team last week with the trade of Jesse Mysiorek.  Devin Buffalo has been one of the top rookie goalies for the Bombers this season, with 9-8-2 record with 3.44 GAA and 904 SV%

The Bruins are hoping to get Eric Baldwin and Connor Milligan into the lineup tonight. Both are game time decisions.
