Terriers become Sherwood Conference Champs with Game 6 win over Mils
The Yorkton Terriers booked their ticket into the Canalta Cup Final against the Humboldt Broncos with a 5-1 Game 6 victory over the Melville Millionaires to capture the Sherwood Conference Final 4 games to 2.
It all got started 11:04 into the 1st period as Dakota Odgers would pounce on a loose puck for his 1st goal of the playoffs to give the Terriers a 1-0 lead after 1 period.
There wouldn't be another goal until the latter stages of the 2nd period and they both would be powerplay goals for the Terriers, and they got both goals from Dylan Johnson as he got his first 2 goals of the playoffs to give the visiting Terriers a 3 goal, 3-0 after 40 minutes of play.
In the 3rd and in the opening minute the Mils thought they had their first goal of the hockey game but it was waved off because of a Goaltender Interference penalty to the Millionaires' Ian McNulty. But they would open the scoring just under 8 minutes into the 3rd as Ian McNulty would deflect a Tyler Bird shot past Dawson McAuley to make it 3-1 Terriers lead. Then on a ensuing powerplay, Brady Norrish would get his 4th goal of the playoffs off a Mils' turnover at the blueline to make it 4-1, then B Norrish would ice it for good into the empty net for his 2nd of the night to make it a 5-1 Terriers final.
Dawson McAuley who was outstanding in goal stopped 35 of 36 shots for the victory while Alex Wakaluk, the SJHL MVP turned away 25 of 29 shots but was tagged with the loss.
Just another great and classic Highway 10 Rivalry, where both fan bases came out and supported their boys, crowds were loud, 50/50s were outstanding and great hockey displayed on the ice that is what Junior A Hockey is all about.
Congrats to the Yorkton Terriers they will now meet the Humboldt Broncos in the Canalta Cup Final (and cool fact from former GX94 PXP man Craig Stein as this will be the 9th straight year that either the Broncos or Terriers will appear the SJHL Final, but first between these two teams since 1991)
Stay tuned for the release of the Canalta Cup Final Schedule, early this week.

Analysis:.
The Yorkton Terriers and Melville Millionaires advanced into the Sherwood Conference in kind of you can say 2 different ways, the Terriers ended their Sherwood Semi-Final Series in just 5 games over the Estevan Bruins with the only bump in the road coming in Game 2. While the Melville Millionaires they had a grueling 7 games series against the Notre Dame Hounds where they were on multiple occasions almost eliminated by a very stingy Hounds hockey club. The Terriers up front have been led in the playoffs by 20 year old Terrier rookie Patrick Martens who has 7 goals in 5 games in the playoffs including a hat trick in the series clincher over Estevan while Tyler Giebel, Jeremy Johnson and Josh Ellis have been solid up front as well with the likes of Tayler Thompson, Kailum Gervais and Nathan Murray aBle to chip in in big ways offensively. While for the Mils Russell Trudeau is on a point a game pace even without linemate Ian McNulty contributing like he can. While Boyer, Aschim and Froese a trio of 20 year olds have been solid for the Mils but the factor line of Reeve, Mospanchuk and Kilback who were outstanding in Game 7, the not known return of Christian Magnus to the forward corp and powerplay. On the backend , Yorkton has one of the deepest defences in the league with the likes of Brady and Chase Norrish , and Devon McMullen able to change a game with their speed. For the Mils, it all leans on the statud of the teams rearguard in Brennan Ritchie who sat out Game 7 but the play of 20 year olds Kevin Woodyatt and Kyle Scaber has elevated. In goal, SJHL MVP Alex Wakaluk for the Mils was outstanding in the Hounds series and single handily saved the season with outstanding play in overtime in Game 6, while Terriers Dawson McAuley has been his solid self and has been very, very good in the Terriers net all season. Another battle woll be the SJHLs Best home team in the Terriers and the best road team in the Mils. So its going to be a battle between the Highway 10 rivals with some packed arena on the horizon and which ever team comes out will be a very good representative for the Sherwood Conferenc in the SJHLs Canalta Cup Final

It will be just over a month since these teams last matchup back on Feb 2nd when they meet each other on Saturday for Game 1. The OCN Blizzard have beaten the Stampeders 5 out of the 8 times they have played including the 1st 2 and last 3 meetings these two teams met up. The Blizzard started the season on a very, very high note leading the league and Sherwood Division for most of the MJHL season before being overcome by a very good Dauphin Kings team. The 'Blizz 2nd half of the season was definately not as good as their first but still ended the season with a very solid record and 2nd place finish in the division. The Stamps while during the season have had stretches that made them look like one of the best teams in the league, including a 9 game winning streak earlier in the season when they acquired 20 year old goalie Landon Noel from the Summerside Capitals (RBC Hosts) who has been fantastic since becoming a Stamp. Goaltending could be a big story in this series as the teams both sport very good goaltenders in Noel and Blizzard goalie Justin McDonald who I'm sure will carry the load for both clubs. On the backend, the Stamps will need a big series from 19 year old Riley Hiebert who has had some injury trouble throughout the season but looks like he is finding his stride and also MJHL Rookie of the Year finalish 17 year old dman Garret Johnston will also need to provide some offence from the backend. OCN on the other hand are led on the backend by 20 year old Nathan Bruyere who chipped in with 17 goals from the defence and will be one of the leaders especially on the PP. Up front, it looks like the line of Reimer, Smart, and Valentino is finally coming into their own after being reunited back together, while Jordan Neduzak, Dylan Favell, Colin Baudry and Max Flanagan have also chipped in with their fair share of the offence. The problem for the Stamps has been the injury bug as the likes of Dylan Favell and Colin Baudry have been out and their status for the series is still up in the air. The OCN Blizzard forwards are led by their leading scorer Tyler Grove who ended off as the teams leading scorer with 25 goals and 57 points during the season but captain TJ Constant and Wilson Dumais, who just returned back to the team also chip in with the Blizzard offence.

Analysis:
The Wayway Wolverines will be have a very tough test going into their Sherwood Division Semi-Final as the Dauphin Kings are one of, if not the hottest team in the CJHL as the Kings have won a franchise record 20 consecutive games coming into the playoffs and were ranked as the number 3 team in the country in the final CJHL Top 20 Rankings. They also possess the MJHL Top Scorer (Sinatynski), the MJHL's Top Defenceman (Butler) and the league's Most Valuable Player (Naud). Not only can they score but they keep it out as well as they have two reliable goaltenders in Archibald and Pominville who they an turn to and they have a combined 8 shutouts this season. The Wolverines will have to strike early in series and will need a big contribution from the 20 year old led by leading scorer Russell Turner who could be a game changer with combination of size, speed and scoring ability along with Brett Pinkerton, Curtis Veitch and offensive defenceman David Haaf will need to continue to come up big. Finally between the pipes the combination of 20 year old Cory Simons and 18 year old Brenden Fiebelkorn have be very, very stellar and have to outduel the dynamic duo between the pipes that the Kings have.

Analysis:
From the regular season matchup between these two teams, the Melville Millionaires would be favorite coming into this series. The Mils won 5 of 6 meetings between these two teams and are coming into the playoffs having recorded a point in their last 11 games of the regular season while the Notre Dame Hounds only have won 2 of their last 10 games to end off the regular season. Between the pipes, the Mils are led by SJHL MVP Alex Wakaluk in goal who has been fantastic for the Mils all season long and is one of the reason the Mils are as high as they were in the standings and his 5 shutouts rank among the league's best while Kyle Baumgardner who has started 2 games this season recording a shutout in one of those appearances. The Hounds in goal counter with Ty Reichenbach who has been solid in their goal having recorded 3 shutouts this season while backing him up is a 20 year old who has WHL experience in Michael Salmon. On the backend, the Hounds may have one of the deepest and most experienced cores in the SJHL with a total of 5 20 year olds on the backend (Murray, Johnson, Brisebois, Boucher, and Grolla) while the Millionaires are led on the backend by 20 year old Brennan Ritchie who has 16 points in 25 games since arriving from La Ronge in late November and 19 year old rookie Zack Simpson has had a very solid 1st season as a Millionaire as well. Up front, no team might have more scorers in the Top 20 then the Melville Millionaires led by the leagues top 2 scorers in the SJHL Player of the Year in Ian McNulty with 69 points followed by 19 year old Russell Trudeau with 68 points while the Hounds up front are led by the #3 in the SJHL in Brandon Millin who ended off the season with 28G and 57 points while rookie of the Year Finalist Sam Aulie and Dion Antisin have also chipped in for the Hounds Offence.

Analysis:
It will be almost 2 full weeks since the Yorkton Terriers last played a game and definately will be the fresher of the teams going in as it will be only about 48 hours of rest for the Estevan Bruins after defeating the Kindersley Klippers in the Sherwood Survivor Series but they will be coming in with some momentum after a big victory over the Klips. The Terriers up front are very deep with all 4 lines firing and they all can score on any given night as they have 9 players with at least 30 points on the season led by 20 year old veterans Nathan Murray (team leader in points) and local product Jeremy Johnson (team leader in goals). While the Bruins counter with a very improved and healthier forward unit then they had at the start of the season that could be because Calder Neufeld is back healthy and his hot in the playoffs with 7 points in their 4 game so far in the post season, and also the return of Dylan Smith from EJHL on Jan 10th. On the backend the Terriers have the advantage at that position as they bolster one of the best, if not the best D core in the SJHL with likes of the Norrish Twins (Brady and Chase) , Devon McMullen, Austin Bourhis, John Neibrandt , Dylan Baer and Dallas Rossiter all capable of providing offence on the backend. Between the pipes, the Terriers have pretty much split their goaltending duties between Kale Thomson and Dawson McAuley, with McAuley playing most of the games down the stretch here. While for the Bruins its 20 year old backstopper Curtis Martinu who has been very good especially down the stretch as they were battling for a playoff spot and when they overcame the Klippers he will have to be even better to keep the Bruins in this series. Also another big thing that could be factor is home ice, the Terriers were 25-1-1 at the Farrell Agencies Arena, and their only regulation loss came to these Estevan Bruins back in late October. | |||||||||||||
