The last meeting between the two teams was on Sunday when the Red Wings beat the Bruins 4-1. The Red Wings scored a pair of power play goals in the win.

Latest News


Estevan Bruins- The time is now for the Bruins. With one more game against the Red Wings and an upcoming home and home set with Melville on the horizon, the Bruins need some wins this week in order for the Bruins to make up some ground on their divisional rivals.

Weyburn Red Wings- The Red Wings are coming off their first win since the announcement that Dwight McMillan was no longer the team's Head Coach. A win today for the Red Wings would give the team new life in the playoff race in the Sherwood Conference.

Keep An Eye On


Estevan Bruins- In the third period of Sunday's Game the Bruins mixed up the lines putting Cole Olson on a line with Alex Cote and Hudson Morrison. With the callup of Darcy DeRoose to Moose Jaw (WHL) it will be interesting to what lines the Bruins go with today.

Weyburn Red Wings- The Wings top line of Ryan Ostertag Miguel Pereria and Ty McLean was limited to one powerplay goal but are still a key part of the Red Wings offence.
