SJHL names U20 All-Star squad for 2025 Viking Cup in Camrose

The Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League has named its 2025 Viking Cup roster, as the league returns to the international event for the first time since 2006.

Three local connections headline the group: Melville Millionaires defenceman Boston Harkness, Yorkton Terriers forward Jye Zawatsky, and Swan River product Bo Eisner, who’s having a strong season with the Melfort Mustangs.

They join a 20-and-under all-star lineup featuring top talent from across the SJHL, with Humboldt’s Charlie Tritt and La Ronge’s Graham Brown set to share the crease.

This year’s Viking Cup runs December 27 to January 4 in Camrose, with five teams competing. Team SJHL opens the tournament December 28 against Midland University.

Melville netminder Noah Sinagowitz, Swan River's Bo Eisner among weekly SJHL award winners

Melville Millionaires goaltender Noah Sinagowitz and Swan River’s Bo Eisner headline this week’s SJHL award winners.

Sinagowitz earned SaskMilk Rookie of the Week after posting a 27-save shutout in a 1–0 win over Estevan. With Melville still sorting out its crease rotation, Sinagowitz continues to make a strong push for more starts.

Meanwhile, Swan River product Bo Eisner has been named the SuperU Defenceman of the Week. The Melfort Mustangs veteran put up four points over two games, including a standout performance Saturday against La Ronge. 

Other weekly winners include Flin Flon’s Joey Lies, who takes home SGEU MVP of the Week after a four-point weekend and a shootout winner against Humboldt.

Warman’s Kane Kennedy is the Bourgault Forward of the Week, scoring four goals in two games, including a hat trick on Friday.

Nipawin’s Gage Roberts earns SaskTel Goalie of the Week honours thanks to a 28-save shutout — the third of his SJHL career.

And Estevan forward Rylan Williams is the Canterra Seeds Saskatchewan Player of the Week, adding four points over three games as he continues to drive the Bruins’ offence.

Melville Millionaires take Game 1 of Highway 10 rivalry with decisive road win in Yorkton

The Melville Millionaires earned their second straight win — and fourth of the season — Friday night, defeating the Yorkton Terriers 7–2 in the first Highway 10 battle of the campaign.

Yorkton opened the scoring with a power-play goal from Gabriel Courchesne midway through the first, but Kale Margolis tied it late to make it 1–1.

Melville took over in the second period, getting goals from Grady Carmichael, Leo Jewitt, and Devin Winder to jump ahead 4–1, outshooting Yorkton 20–8 in the frame.

Zach Hertz pulled the Terriers within two, but Jackson Lee quickly restored the Mils’ three-goal cushion. Ty Janz and Rylan Oatman added late markers to seal the win.

Noah Sinagowitz stopped 41 of 43 shots for Melville, while Callum Creig allowed seven goals on 40 shots for Yorkton.

The teams meet again Saturday night in Melville for Game 2 of the Parks Cup, with puck drop at 7:00 at the CN Community Centre.

Sept. 30th MJHL/SJHL Recap

MJHL: Swan Valley Stampeders drops wild one in Waywayseecappo on Tuesday night The Swan Valley Stampeders watched two separate two-goal leads slip away Tuesday night, as the Waywayseecappo Wolverines mounted a relentless comeback to claim a 7–5 victory on home ice.

Rhett Perrin got the Wolverines on the board midway through the first period, but Swan Valley responded with a goal from Trace Langan to send the teams into the second tied 1–1.

The middle frame turned into a scoring frenzy, with seven goals in a span of just over 15 minutes. Gage Sutherland gave Waywayseecappo a quick lead just 29 seconds in, but the Stampeders roared back with goals from Chantyn Michell-Thompson and Darren Hunt in a 12-second burst. Jaxon Haley added a short-handed tally at 8:21 to make it 4–2.

Waywayseecappo answered with a power-play goal from Perrin—his second of the night—but Gavin Bartha restored Swan Valley’s cushion with a man-advantage marker. The Wolverines responded with two goals in under six minutes, as Cale Livingston and Mikey Thomas each found the back of the net to tie the game 5–5 heading into the third.

The Wolverines’ power play continued to click in the final frame. Sebastien Hicks gave Waywayseecappo the lead at 4:05 with their third power-play goal of the night, and Ben Roulette iced the game with an empty-netter at 17:40.

Goaltender Jase Wareham turned aside 29 shots to earn his third consecutive win, while Easton Falls made 26 saves in the loss for Swan Valley.

The Stampeders return to action on Friday night hosting Virden, while Wolverines head to Steinbach on Friday night to take on the Pistons.  ========= SJHL ROUNDUP: Melville Millionaires, Yorkton Terriers both fall on Tuesday night

ESTEVAN BRUINS 6, YORKTON TERRIERS 3

The Estevan Bruins exploded for three quick goals in the opening 8:19 and never looked back, skating to a 6-3 divisional victory over the Yorkton Terriers on Tuesday night.

Rylan Williams paced the Bruins with a pair of goals and an assist, while Noah Asmundson, Ewan Rennie, Oliver Kramp, and Ethan Andrews also found the back of the net.

Thomas Ries scored twice for Yorkton, with Vinay Junek adding the other.

Between the pipes, Brady Carr stopped 39 of 42 shots to secure the win for Estevan. On the other side, Terrier rookie Alexandro Montoya turned aside 23 of 28 shots in his SJHL debut.

The Terriers visit Humboldt on Friday to face the Broncos, while the Bruins hit the road the same night to battle the Nipawin Hawks.

NIPAWIN HAWKS 3, MELVILLE MILLIONAIRES 2

Van Taylor’s power-play marker with 6:30 remaining in regulation stood as the game-winner, lifting the Nipawin Hawks to a 3-2 road win over the Melville Millionaires on Tuesday.

Mason Karakochuk and Will Whitter also scored for Nipawin, while Brendan Olson provided both tallies for Melville. The game was knotted 1-1 after the first period and 2-2 through 40 minutes before Taylor’s late heroics.

Hawks goaltender Gage Roberts made 37 saves on 39 shots for the win, while Melville’s Kael Svenson stopped 27 of 30.

The Millionaires now turn their attention to a weekend home-and-home with the Weyburn Red Wings, beginning Friday on the road before hosting Saturday’s rematch.

Melville Millionaires acquire 2007-born forward Brayden Gourley in trade with Bonnyville Pontiacs

The Melville Millionaires have traded 20-year-old forward Jadon Iyogun to the Bonnyville Pontiacs of the AJHL in exchange for 18-year-old forward Brayden Gourley and future considerations.

Iyogun, a Calgary native and Tennessee State University commit, joined the Millionaires in 2023 and quickly became a key contributor. Over two seasons, he appeared in 99 games, recording 44 goals and 48 assists for 92 points. In 2024–25, he tallied 21 goals and 27 assists in 51 games and was named the SJHL’s Most Sportsmanlike Player.

“After reviewing our roster, we decided to move Jadon, I can say that internally, we made the decision that anyone who leaves the team won’t be returning,” said Millionaires head coach and GM Doug Johnson. “In return, we’re bringing in a talented 2007-born forward with junior experience and championship pedigree. He’s a left-shot center, which is an area we felt needed strengthening. We’re very excited about what Brayden brings and confident he’ll make our team stronger this season.”

Gourley, also from Calgary, played for the Calgary Buffaloes U18 AAA in 2023–24, posting 16 goals and 23 assists in 35 games. In 2024–25, he split time between the Blackfalds Bulldogs of the BCHL and the AJHL’s Bonnyville Pontiacs, recording 10 points in 24 games.

Yorkton Kinsmen Maulers gear up for Wednesday's regular season opener

The Yorkton Kinsmen Maulers head into the Saskatchewan Male U18 AAA Hockey League regular season with confidence after completing an undefeated preseason.

Head Coach Jason Gordon credited both the team’s depth and their goaltending for the early success.

“Our goaltending was outstanding all the way through, and we really showcased the depth of our roster,” Gordon said. “It’s great to have experience in net with Cole Ivey, and he’s ready to go.”

Gordon cautioned, however, that preseason results only go so far.  “We played strong competition from the Manitoba U18 AAA League, which has a great reputation, but now the real season begins and the message to the group is not to get too high or too low — the games that matter start now.”

Yorkton opens Wednesday in Wilcox against the Notre Dame Hounds, a team Gordon expects will be difficult as always.

“Every time you play Notre Dame, it’s a battle,” he said. “With Casey O’Brien now behind their bench, we know they’ll be hard to play against. Those points are always important when you’re battling in the standings.”

For fans, Gordon promises an up-tempo, four-line brand of hockey with mobile defense and quick transition play. 

The Maulers will also continue building community connections by visiting schools, engaging sponsors, and distributing “golden tickets” ahead of the home opener Saturday against the Prince Albert Mintos at Westland Arena.

“We want Westland to be one of the toughest rinks for visiting teams,” Gordon said. Full audio below:
