Battle of the titans as second place Trojans meet first place Blazers on Wednesday
There’s just one game on the schedule Wednesday night in the Saskatchewan Midget AAA Hockey League (SMAAAHL), and it should be a good one.
The Tisdale Trojans hit the road for a meeting with the league leading Saskatoon Blazers at the Rod Hamm Memorial Arena. Saskatoon sits at a record of 19-4-1, good for 39 points, while Tisdale isn’t far behind at a record of 15-2-3, good for 33 points and second place in the league.
The Trojans are coming off a pair of wins against Beardys Blackhawks on Saturday Nov. 24 (3-1), and the Notre Dame Hounds on Sunday Nov. 25 (4-1). Trojans Head Coach Darrell Mann said they were excellent defensively.
“We limited both team’s chances,” Mann said. “We had a really good penalty kill on Sunday against Notre Dame, and I think it was a big team effort again, led by Tanner Martin in net, from our D core out to our forwards.”
