Melville ends their Pre-season with a 4-2 record and they begin their regular season on opening night on Thursday at home to the Estevan Bruins. Pre-game show 7:20, Play by Play 7:30 on GX94
While the Way Way Wolverines finish their preseason with a 2-4 record and will open their regular season at home on Friday against the defending MJHL champion Portage Terriers.

**Thoughts From the Box**
*Wolves 20 year old goalie Cory Simons who was outstanding tonight and kept his team in it late in the game.
*Wolves will have a young defense core, but '94 born Matt Miller looks like he can help fill that void, smooth skating dman led a few nice rushes and even scored.
*Lucas Froese, 20 year old vet for the Mils had yet another strong game for the Mils, it shows how much he worked hard in the summer and could be a dark horse for SJ scoring lead
*Entertaining hockey game as both sides gear up for the start of regular season and both teams look close to that shape.
