Quick Summary
Man: S. Bruce (18:46 1st) , S. Bruce (10:03 3rd) , D. Pasternak (12:22 3rd) , S. Bruce (19:04 3rd)
Alta: C. Doherty (02:24 3rd) , A. Thacker (09:15 3rd)
Goal: Man: Holt (20 shots, 18 saves), Alta: Langkow (17 shots, 14 saves)

I was watching this one without sound due to being at a loud night with a bar band. Not to mention the vain attempts to keep updated with the World Series, the CFL, and the out-of-town scoreboard. This was a key win for the Bisons, enabling them to dream of the possibility of hosting a playoff series this year.

Both sides were focussed on playing strong defence. Skylar Bruce scored his first of three goals late in the 1st period, a period in which the Bisons carried the play. Things changed in the 2nd period, however the pressure by the Evil Monkeys never produced any goals. Thus the game was 1-0 Bisons after two periods.

Then came the 3rd period explosion. Colin Doherty scored after two minutes after sustained Monkey pressure. Then the Apes took their first lead of the evening when Alex Thacker scored after nine minutes. Oddly, that go-ahead goal breathed life into the Bisons. Less than a minute passed before Bruce scored his second goal of the game to tie it up. Sustained pressure by the Bisons resulted in a powerplay, where Dawson Pasternak notched the winner. The Monkeys still had almost eight minutes to tie it up, but never looked overly dangerous down the stretch. Bruce’s empty-netter completed his hat-trick and lifted the Bisons to a 3-2-0 record.

Despite the winner coming off a powerplay, each side had just two minor penalties on the night. No game stories have yet been posted by either side.

The Banjo-Cats came up with another good performance. Could they be the “real thing” at long last? This was a tight game throughout. However, the Banjo-Mutts took control in the 3rd period and overtime, where they outshot the Banjo-Cats 16-5. In this game, even the shootout went to overtime. It took 5 rounds before the Banjo-Mutts won it 2-1. The only game story here comes from Huskie Fan.

Goal: Calg: Tetachuk (35 shots, 34 saves), MRU: Zahara (31 shots, 27 saves)

It appears to me that the CW has “squished” this year, with the leading teams coming back to the pack. With this result, none of the Alberta teams could win three straight to start the season. The Bluegars had an edge in the shots department. However, the powerplays were the turning point. Bedrock U scored two shorthanded goals, plus one on the powerplay. Calgary is now 2-3-0, and MRU falls to 2-1-0. Remember that Saturday’s rematch is available free on CBC Gem and YouTube.

Goal: MacU: Ironside (39 shots, 36 saves), TWU: Audet (35 shots, 31 saves)

Holy Trinity has a hard time holding onto the lead thus far. They surrendered two late goals to blow another lead here, and never even got a point. This is the first win for The Family Guys, who now stand at 1-3-1 for 3 points, one point behind the rest of their division.

These results are beginning to make it look like the Bisons have a knack of being assigned to the better division in the CW’s rotation plan. Division “B” (the Bisons’) now has the first four teams in the overall standings and Division “A” has teams 5th through 8th.

➤ UofA (Friday late): Bruce’s hat trick lifts Bisons past Golden Bears (with boxscore)

Quick Summary
Man: C. Zaplitny (08:41 1st) , E. Pastro (04:13 2nd) , S. Bruce (07:22 2nd) , E. Alarie (08:21 2nd) , L. Brennan (09:58 3rd)

Goal: Man: Kieper (27 shots, 25 saves), Alta: Langkow (27 shots, 22 saves)

As I post, the Saturday game stories have not been posted. However, the Evil Monkeys posted the Friday game story on Saturday. They got both sides’ records wrong in that story. They stated Alberta fell to 1-2 and Manitoba improved to 2-3.

Turning to Saturday’s game, the shot totals were deceptive. The Evil Monkeys pulled even due to outshooting the Bisons 12-4 in the 3rd period, when they trailed 4-1 and the Bisons seemed to be running oout the clock. Once Alberta reduced the margin to 4-2, the Bisons woke up. I believe that when Lucas Brennan scored mid-period, it was their first shot. Skyler Bruce scored his 5th of the season (and 4th of the weekend), Caden Zaplitny scored his 2nd, and Erik Pastro, Eric Alarie, and Brennan all recorded their 1st.

Unofficially, this is the first weekend sweep for the Bisons away to Alberta. They have had back-to-back wins on separate weekends.

Also, I should point out that the goaltending rotation continued. Matthew Kieper and Braden Holt are now both 2-1-0. Kieper’s save percentage is .933 and Holt’s is .922. While NHL save percentages are going down, the top ten goalies in the CW are now .900 or better.

Goal: MacU: Onyskiw (34 shots, 31 saves), TWU: Savage (12 shots, 12 saves), Bacovsky (17 shots, 14 saves)

The start times of two games changed without me noticing, including this one. The Hockey Tech stats appear to be wrong. The Spartan goaltenders had a combined 26 saves on 29 shots, yet gave up 6 goals. They also said each TWU goaltender played 20 minutes. Makes no sense to me. Those dang AI robots doing their thing, I guess.

Anyhow, this was a 4-3 game with 6 minutes left. So it was a bit of a misleading scoreline. Anyhow, a loss is a loss for Holy Trinity. Of note, Mikhailo Simchuk scored his 6th goal of the season for the Spartans, to go with 3 assists. Not to mention Aiden Knutson (6 GP, 2 G, 5 A, 7 Pts) and Christian Lowe (6 GP, 0 G, 6 A, 6 Pts). They visit the Bisons next weekend, and those are players I’ll be watching.

In a season where rotating goalies is in vogue, Carl Tetachuk has now started 5-out-of-6 for Bedrock U. A split was likely the common forecast in this one, so no surprise here. The Dinos get the satisfaction of a 3-2 “win” on points. I was disappointed when I discovered the change of start times here. It was due to be my post 9:00 p.m. backup game. I might just watch the “on demand” broadcast on Sunday.

When was the last time the Bisons swept the Bears?

Depends how you look at it. On October 15, 2011, the Bisons won the Friday game 5-4. The Saturday game went into overtime. The Evil Monkeys scored with too many monkeys on the ice, so the goal was called off. Overtime continued, and the Bisons scored the winning goal. However, the Monkeys appealed and the CW gave them the win.

The historical records just go back to 2008 on the Bison website. On CWTV they said Manitoba had consecutive wins in Alberta before, but not on the same weekend.

My posts on those games from back in the day:

October 14, 2011

TIC TAC TOE, THREE IN A ROW!

The game started earlier than I expected so I missed the first period on CanadaWest.tv. At that time the Bisons had built a 2-0 lead on goals by Blair Macaulay and Myles Rumsey, and held a 13-10 edge in SOG. However, they were also two men shorthanded to start the second.

The officiating in the 2nd period was highly questionable. The Bisons started the period two men short and then were assessed a further 12 minutes in minors, a 5 minute major, and three 10 minute misconducts. The Evil Monkeys had a total of four minutes in minors. That means they had about 17 minutes of power play time during the period, often including two minute stretches of a 2-man advantage. On one play a little monkey named Ian Barteuax hacked and pushed at Jered Walker after the whistle. Walker pushed back and Barteaux flew Sedin-like to the ice. Walker got 5 minutes for his efforts.

Yet the Bisons out-scored the Monkeys by 2-1 in the period for a 4-1 lead. Tylet Dittmer scored on a rare even-strength situation. The Monkeys were able to finally score on a PP about 14 minutes in. Then, to rub salt in the wounds, the Bisons got a PP goal from Ian Duval in the final minute.

Joe Caligiuri was doing great work in the Bison goal, and the PK was very effective. However, the team looked tired in the 3rd. The Primates scored three unanswered goals to tie the game. But in the last 90 seconds Dane Crowley made a cross-ice pass to Mike Hellyer who one-timed it into the net for a 5-4 victory.

Saturday's game is also on CanadaWest.tv at 8:00 CDT.

October 15, 2011

HERD COMPLETES GRAND SLAM!

I saw this one on CanadaWest.tv. They had three games on tonight but since they all started at the same time I saw very little of the other two games. The game did not have the mean streak of Friday's game. It was still a well-played hockey game but was basically a normal 1-1 tie. Until the end.

The game went into overtime and the first OT (4 on 4) was scoreless. So they went to the second OT (3 on 3). The Evil Monkeys had two extra Monkeys jump out on the ice when they should have been swinging from a branch. One was fed a pass and before you know it the puck was in the net. But not so fast. The linesmen noticed the skullduggery and pointed it out to the referees. Since linesmen can call too many men, but cannot whistle the play dead, the call had to await the next whistle, which happened when the Primates were celebrating their "goal". After a pow-wow the call was made, a bench minor was called and the goal waived off. On the ensuing powerplay, Blair Macaulay notched his 3rd goal of the year and the Herd had their sweep.

Dane Crowley had Manitoba's first goal. Joe Caligiuri stopped 34 of 35 shots for his 4th straight win. The Bisons gradually too control of the game, and outshot the Monkeys 8-5 in the 3rd period and 8-3 in overtime.

Folks, that's four wins in four games in Saudi Alberta against the top two rated CW teams in the pre-season coaches' poll. The Bisons will only play 10 more away games this season (double-headers in Sask, UBC, Regina, Lethbridge, and Calgary)

Skylar Bruce, with four goals against Alberta, was named CW Athlete of the Week in men’s hockey. The story is at the CW Prezly section.

Although in last place, Holy Trinity is showing steady improvement since joining the CW in 2020-21. Their only point thus far is from an OTL against UBC. They are 0-4-0 against MacEwan and Regina, teams they must beat if they want to top last year’s total of 11 points. That was a school record high.

That said, the Bisons need the full four points here, plus next week against Regina for that matter. Their 4-2-0 record is better than expected, and they can really cash in to cement a position in the CW’s upper echelon. They might just be a step closer to securing a home playoff series than I had anticipated.

Although they are in last place, the Spartans have had mostly pretty good games. They have some good players. Forwards Mikhailo Simchuk (6 GP, 6 G, 3 A, 9 Pts), Aiden Knutson (6 GP, 2 G, 5 A, 7 Pts), Christian Lowe (6 GP, 0 G, 6 A, 6 Pts), and Danylo Korzhyletskyi (6 GP, 3 G, 2 A, 5 Pts) would be coveted on any CW line-up. Simchuk, Korzhyletskyi, and Artem Hrabovetskyi form their “Kyiv Connection” of players imported from Ukraine, which is unique in U-Sports hockey. On defence, Riley Joslin has good numbers (5 GP, 1 G, 4 A, 5 Pts).

Scoring has not been the Spartans’ problem. They are tied with Regina (!) for most goals in the CW, with 19. (Although MRU and UBC both have 15 goals in 4 games, for a higher goals-per-game ratio.) Their problem is the 31 goals they have surrendered. MacEwan’s 22 goals against is a distant second-worst. Their goalies’ combined save percentage is .860, and the rest of the CW is .894 or higher. Although their goaltenders have faced the most shots in the CW (221), that is not extraordinarily more than Regina (217) or MacEwan (214).

The Bisons’ two losses have been shut-outs, and they have scored 14 goals in the four wins. Skyler Bruce’s four goal weekend against the Monkeys boosted his numbers (6 GP, 5 G, 3 A, 8 Pts). Dawson Pasternak (6 GP, 2 G, 4 A, 6 Pts), Lucas Brennan (6 GP, 1 G, 4 A, 5 Pts), and Caden Zaplitny (GP 6, 2 G, 2 A, 4 Pts) also lead the offence. My guess is that those players, and others, are looking at an offensive break-through this weekend.

The Bisons have only allowed 14 goals as well, and have played the toughest schedule so far. The Bisons have rotated goaltenders, with Braden Holt (2-1-0, 2.67 GAA, .922 S%) starting the Friday games and Matthew Kieper (2-1-0, 2.0 GAA, .933 S%) starting on Saturdays. I would expect that rotation to continue.

Finally, here’s a reminder that the Bisons are not at home in November. Thus, this series is the last chance to see them in Winnipeg until December 4, 2026.

➤ MRU: Championship DNA: Zach Zahara and Harry Ahlberg bring a winning mentality to MRU men's hockey

This, like all series in the Alberta Division, is a home-and-home series. Friday’s game is in Calgary, and Saturday is in Nisku on the outskirts of Edmontown.

The Evil Monkeys had an incredible pre-season run, but I don’t believe they will hold onto that pace. The Bluegars have had their ups and downs, so this is a match-up of interest. The Monkeys trail the Bluegars by two points, so at least a split is needed to stay in the hunt for first in the Alberta Division.

The MRU article is about two players added from the Brooks Bandits, goaltender Zach Zahara and Swedish forward Harry Ahlberg. The Bandits are one of the Alberta teams in the BCHL, and won the title last year.

These teams never met in the pre-season. Against common opponents, the results are mixed. Alberta has a pre-season sweep of UBC, while MRU was swept by UBC. Alberta has a pre-season and a regular season sweep of MacEwan (one in OT), while MRU had two big wins over MacEwan.

Like the other Alberta series, these teams play Friday in Calgary and then Saturday in Edmontown. MacEwan’s three stars link says that Ethan Sundar from men’s hockey was the second star.

With both sides sporting a 2-3-1 record, a sweep here could bury the loser. Their only common regular season opponent is MRU. Calgary had a win and an OTL, while MacEwan had two losses. Both teams also beat Waterloo in the pre-season.

Including pre-season, MacEwan’s only wins are the two over Trinity last weekend, three exhibitions over the OUA, and one over the ACAC. They’re going to need some wins over CW teams if they want a third straight playoff berth.

Meanwhile, Bedrock U has been a little wobbly but still rotate wins and losses against all kinds of teams. They are a veteran-laden team and could find their form any week now.

Here’s the feature match-up of the weekend. In 2025-26, the T-irds were first overall in the regular season, before the Banjo-Mutts caught fire in the playoffs and won the conference championship, eliminating UBC in the semi-finals.

In the common opponent comparison, both sides have a regular season split with Manitoba. Both sides had an exhibition series against Alberta, with Sask getting a split and UBC losing both. Against Calgary, UBC played in pre-season and had a win and OTL while Sask split a pre-season series and swept a regular season series. Overall, I would give a slight edge to Sask thus far.

October 30, 2026: HERD TAKES FOURTH IN A ROW

TRINITY WESTERN SPARTANS 1
MANITOBA BISONS 4

Links:
➤ Summary: Game Centre ∞ Game Report ∞ Tabbed Boxscore
➤ TWU: Spartans Fall to Bisons in Winnipeg (with boxscore)
➤ UofM: Bisons continue strong start with 4-1 win over Spartans (with boxscore)

Quick Summary
TWU: Z. Whittaker (03:19 1st)
Man: G. Lane (10:34 1st) , E. Pastro (16:09 1st) , L. Brennan (07:06 2nd) , D. Pasternak (11:38 2nd)
Goal: TWU: Audet (41 shots, 37 saves), Man: Holt (37 shots, 36 saves)

Holy Trinity scored first, on their second shot of the game, then it was all-Bisons. The game got a little chippy after a while, and ultimately it was the powerplay that made the difference (the Bisons were 3-for-7, the Spartans were 0-for-2).

Here’s how they lined up:

MANITOBA
Goal:
31 Holt (30 Kieper)

Defence:
4 Bonni - 6 Coyle
8 Toth - 3 Borschowa
27 Turner - 28 Longo

Forwards:
21 Pasternak - 11 Purdom - 17 Bruce
23 Lane - 20 Zaplitny - 24 Brennan
22 Willick - 13 Pastro - 19 Funk
16 Lodoen - 29 Wheddon

Scratches:
F: 9 Alarie - 15 McAllister - 18 Chastko
G: 34 Perreault

TRINITY WESTERN
Goal:
35 Audet (90 Bacovsky)

Defence:
28 Landmanis - 2 Joslin
20 Camaazzola - 94 Whittaker
8 May - 15 Leitch

Forwards:
24 Korzhyletskyi - 19 Simchuk - 17 Hrabovetskyi
91 Lowe - 27 Farren - 43 Schmidt
9 Hungle - 7 Lamoureux - 16 Edwards
93 Knutson - 10 Shearon - 11 Bessey

Scratches:
G: 1 Capton - 31 Savage
D: 4 Abbott - 5 Easton - 6 Wruck
D: 12 Foster - 25 Serrao
F: 14 Moledina - 18 Sinclair - 21 Davis
F: 22 Metastasio - 26 Ayotte - 44 Paulsen - 77 Desabrais

The first major note on the lineups is that the Bisons were one man short. Eric Alarie joined fellow forwards Teague McAllister and Nolan Chastko in the press box. Justin Perreault, as the 3rd string goaltender, is always up there as well. There were also five players there, so somebody new could be coming in. So the Bisons had 10 forwards and seven defencemen dressed, and once again used Tanner Willick up front instead of on defence.

Shortage of bodies is not an issue with Holy Trinity. They have a 34-man roster!

The 2nd period is what did it for the Bisons. They outscored the Spartans 2-0 (both on the powerplay), outshot them 15-6, and all four penalties were assessed upon TWU.

The shot clock (in my opinion) was overstated in the 3rd period (officially, 20-13 in favour of Trinity). The Bisons seemed to just want to run down the clock, hold onto their commanding lead, and get ready for Saturday at 1:00 p.m. The Bisons responded to some chippiness but otherwise seemed satisfied to mail it in.

(Lucas Brennan scored for the Bisons.)

(Trinity uploaded a picture of Raphael Audet’s save on Tanner Willick.)

I was wondering why a game that started at 8:00 CDT (same as MacEwan v Calgary) was so far behind. Well, the Evil Monkeys had no jerseys! Here’s a clip from the Bluegars’ report:

In a night that saw a 43-minute delay, one team forgetting their jerseys at home and 16 combined minor penalties, a hockey game somehow broke out and the Mount Royal University Cougars men's hockey team downed the University of Alberta Golden Bears by a score of 5-3 on Friday evening.

Before the game had even started the Golden Bears were forced to scramble for some yellow practice jerseys in a closet deep in Flames Community Arenas. They dawned bright yellow sweaters that read "Western Elite Hockey" across the central emblem. Good enough for a game against the navy-wearing Mount Royal Cougars.

I got home from the Bison game when the Monkeys were leading 3-2. I wondered what this new jersey was all about. They also had generic white socks! Their usual away jersey this year was white with their monkey logo. However, they have had yellow 3rd jerseys in the past. I’d like to get a good picture of tonight’s jersey. I spent a long time trying to find out what this was all about.

The Bluegars are now 1st in the Alberta Division, despite not looking particularly impressive thus far. This was a streaky game. The Bluegars built a 2-0 lead in the 1st period, the Monkeys took a 3-2 lead early in the 2nd period, then three unanswered MRU goals ended it. Powerplays were key here. MRU was 3-for-6, Alberta was 2-for-7. There was an empty-netter, thus leaving each side with one even-strength goal.

I am betting that the Monkeys will have official jerseys when the scene shifts to Edmontown on Saturday.

Goal: MacU: Ironside (28 shots, 27 saves), Calg: Tetachuk (20 shots, 18 saves)

On a night where jerseys are a story, Go Dinos uploaded a picture which displays a new away jersey for The Family Guys. They just got a new logo last year, and it appears that this one is stylized for the hockey team. Their white jersey used to be a circle with their logo shrunken to fit. (I don’t care for that look.) I wonder if their home jersey will follow suit. I hope so, this is sharp.

In this one, Bedrock U held to three shots in the 2nd period, and Mac U was held to two shots in the 3rd period. This is a big win for The Family Guys, as it vaults them into 2nd place in the Alberta Division. I have a sense now that the four teams in Alberta will fight tooth-and-nail all season.

Goal: Sask: Maier (34 shots, 31 saves), UBC: Schwebius (27 shots, 22 saves)

This was part of a unique triple-header, since Sask and UBC played simultaneously in hockey, football, and volleyball. The football game was for first place in the CW, and UBC won. Here, however, they were not really in this game from the start. The Banjo-Mutts outshot the T-irds 16-5 in the 1st period, en route to a 3-1 lead. It was then 5-2 after the 2nd period and the Mutts were playing run-out-the-clock in the 3rd. It took UBC over 18 minutes to make it 5-3, then an empty-netter wrapped it up.

This makes Sask 6-1-0 and keeps them two points ahead of the Bisons. UBC is now 3-2-0 and now needs a win on Saturday to stay in contention for 1st place.

October 31, 2026: BISONS TRICK OR TREAT AS A TEAM ON 5-GAME WINNING STREAK

TRINITY WESTERN SPARTANS 2
MANITOBA BISONS 3

Links:
➤ Summary: Game Centre ∞ Game Report ∞ Tabbed Boxscore
➤ TWU: Spartans’ Late Push Falls Short Against Bisons (with boxscore)
➤ UofM: Bisons improve to 6-2 with weekend sweep over TWU

Quick Summary
TWU: M. Simchuk (11:04 1st) , C. Farren (19:29 3rd)
Man: D. Pasternak (13:12 1st) , D. Pasternak (15:22 1st) , S. Bruce (13:24 3rd)
Goal: TWU: Bacovsky (37 shots, 34 saves), Man: Kieper (32 shots, 30 saves)

The Bisons make it five in a row, and that has not happened for a long time. Combined with the results from elsewhere, the odds of them not only qualifying for playoffs, but hosting a playoff series, have increased greatly.

Line-up-wise, things were mostly the same as on Friday.

For the Bisons, Matthew Kieper rotated into the net, as is usual. Eric Alarie returned to the line-up, hence they had a full 20 dressed. This prompted a rotation on the left wing. Alarie was with Pastro and Funk, Willick with Lodoen and Wheddon, Pasternak with Zaplitny and Wheddon, and Lane with Purdom and Bruce. However, Joel Purdom did not play after a few early shifts. At least not that I noticed. Bruce and Lane continued to play together with assorted linemates, and they killed penalties and were on the powerplay. Thus, the Herd was back to a 19-man line-up for the bulk of the game.

For the Spartans, Landmanis was scratched from the blueline, and they dressed an extra forward, #21 Cyprus Davis. Their alignment was altered somewhat in that Christian Lowe replaced Artem Hrabovetskyi on the Ukrainian line.

Once again, Holy Trinity opened the scoring but the Bison powerplay turned things around. Dawson Pasternak’s scored his 4th and 5th goals of the season about two minutes apart.

The 2nd period was fairly uneventful, with no goals and much sloppy play by the Bisons. This culminated with a too-many-men-on-the-ice penalty late in the period.

In the 3rd period, Skyler Bruce scored his 6th of the season for what proved to be the winner. The Bisons nursed the 2-goal lead until Trinity registered a powerplay goal with 31 seconds left. There was a brouhaha after the final whistle. Holy Trinity is generally a fairly chippy team, and this game was not really different.

For reasons which really call for an explanation, the Bisons lose a home game against Regina next weekend. They want to have men’s and women’s teams in Virden on Saturday. The women were already scheduled to play in Regina. The men could have played at home Friday, then ventured out to Virden on Saturday. I’ll address this later in the week. For those unaware, Virden is straight west of Winnipeg just inside the Manitoba/ Saskatchewan border.

(One of three Bison celebrations.)

(One of 30 saves by Matthew Kieper.)

This sweep, albeit a 4-1 on points sweep, places the T-irds in a difficult situation. They are now level with Regina at 3-2-1. That said, this was a good battle and could have gone either way. The Banjo-Mutts thus remain two points ahead of the Bisons in the race for first place.

MacEwan posted a story on Friday’s game too late for me, and it is now linked.

During the CWTV broadcast, they pointed out that this was the Dinos’ first loss at MacEwan since they entered the CW. This win came at a good time for The Family Guys. They entered the weekend level with the Dinos, now they lead them by a full four points. Could we see the Dinos and Evil Monkeys battling for a playoff berth? That would be something. They face each other next weekend.

I saw a good portion of this game. The first thing I noticed was that the Evil Monkeys had full uniforms! Their late post of a Friday game story is accompanied by a photo, which I have linked for posterity.

This was a very evenly-played game and, to coin a cliche, could have gone either way. The Alberta Division thus had a pair of sweeps which really shifts this division. The Evil Monkeys face the Dinos next week, and neither could survive another sweep.

(Here’s what the Evil Monkeys looked like on Friday night, with borrowed practice jerseys and generic white socks.)

On the positive side, we have the Bisons’ record through the early going. The CW passed the quarter-pole this past weekend. The Bisons are sitting pretty, two points behind Saskatchewan and second overall in the CW. All is glorious!

The Bisons have been led in the scoring department by Skyler Bruce (8 GP, 6 G, 6 A, 12 Pts), Dawson Pasternak (8 GP, 5 G, 5 A, 10 Pts), and Lucas Brennan (8 GP, 2 G, 6 A, 8 Pts). In the CW scoring race, Bruce is 1st, Pasternak is tied for 2nd, and Brennan is tied for 8th. Both goaltenders are having stellar seasons. Braden Holt is 2nd (3-1-0, 2.25 GAA, .935 S%) and Matthew Kieper is 4th (3-1-0, 2.00 GAA, .934 S%).

The Banjo-Cats are not to be under-estimated. A sweep here and they would vault into contention themselves. In my opinion, they are the biggest surprise so far. They lost most of their scoring from a year ago. Now, their wins have been against the bottom-dwellers. They opened with two wins over Holy Trinity and followed with a split against the Disappointing Dinos from Calgary. So maybe they are just cashing in where they can scavenge some points. Time will tell. They could be like last year’s Bisons by finishing in the top 6 overall but finishing 4th in their division and missing the playoffs.

Kittens to watch include Cole Wirun (6 GP, 4 G, 4 A, 8 Pts) and Jye Zawatsky (6 GP, 3 G, 5 A, 8 Pts). Wirun had two goals and two assists in 10 games last season, and Zawatsky is a rookie. Maintaining that pace may be difficult. In net, they have split the duties between Damon Cunningham (2-0-1, 2.40 GAA, .933 S%) and former Bison Ross Hawryluk (1-2-0, 4.29 GAA, .880 S%). They might want to lean toward Cunningham.

On the negative side, we have two things. One is the injury big which has hit the sparse Bison roster. The other is the scheduling of this weekend, whereby the U of M sacrificed the hockey team for the benefit of the women’s team and one of their Alumni.

On the injury bug, the Bisons were down a man last Friday, then again finished down a man on Saturday. They have just 23 rostered players right now, with three of those being goaltenders. As a result, when three skaters are scratched, they are one man short. Their roster has just seven defencemen, and 13 forwards. All the injuries have been to forwards, which is fortunate. It is always easier to shift a defenceman up front than vice versa.

On the scheduling, university administration owe an explanation. I could find nothing, and AI has found nothing. You will note that this series has one game in Regina, and one in Virden. It is a 2:58 drive from Winnipeg to Virden, and 2:57 from Regina to Virden.

The Bison men’s team has ZERO home games in the month of November. That’s because they were slated to be the home team this weekend, followed by two away series and a bye week.

Trechelle Bunn, former Bison women’s player and current Chief of the Birdtail Sioux First Nation (which is a half hour north of Virden) got the U of M to agree to this event. In the CW, the women’s and men’s schedules are exact inverses of one another. Thus, when it is Regina at Manitoba in men’s, it is Manitoba at Regina in women’s (as this weekend was originally scheduled). The idea here was to have a women’s and a men’s game played in double-header fashion. CW scheduling does not provide for this. Then, to get Regina to agree to shift their women’s team home game to a neutral site, they demanded that their men’s team shift two away games to one home game and one neutral site game.

Now, the options to this are obvious. The Bison men could have played at home on Friday, then both teams bus out to Virden for Saturday’s game. The women’s team have one home series with Regina, on January 15th and 16th. Again, that Saturday game could have been moved to Virden. There would have been no cost to Regina, since Virden is at the midpoint on the highway home. Also, pre-season games are frequently played at or near Saskatchewan First Nations. There’s no reason why the Birdtail Sioux could not have followed suit.

I thought perhaps there could be a financial benefit to this. However, the Birdtail Sioux Facebook page has an ad, which AI confirms means that band members can sign up for a free game ticket, a free bus ride, and a free meal. There was nothing at all about the games in the October 30th issue of their weekly paper, the Virden Empire-Advance. The local radio station, CJ103radio.com, does not do play-by-play and don’t have any articles on their web page. Moreover, the current band is involved in litigation with a former employee who was fired over alleged misappropriation of $65,000. That matter goes to trial in 2028. Thus, I would not anticipate a great number of ticket sales to the locals in Virden, nor a financial contribution from the Birdtail Sioux.

Bottom line: I’d like to know what is in this for the Bisons? Looks like nothing but costs, and instead of 14 home and 14 away games, they get 12 home, 1 neutral site, and 15 away games.

Every game on Friday night starts at 8:00 CDT, so my chances of taking in large swaths of the out-of-town games are very low.

On paper, this is the mismatch of the week. After a pair of 2-goal losses to Regina, Holy Trinity has three consecutive weekends where they have had a 1-goal loss and a 3-goal loss each weekend. One of these weekends, they are bound to win one of those 1-goal games.

At the same time, the Banjo-Mutts have a 1-goal win each weekend so far, except against Manitoba (where they had a 1-goal loss instead). Put this together and I expect that Sask will have one comfortable win and one close game. No doubt the Bisons would love to see the Banjo-Mutts drop a point or two this weekend.

This is a home-and-home Alberta derby series, Friday in Calgary and Saturday in Edmontown (actually, nearby Nisku).

This Battle-of-Alberta is usually a much-anticipated confrontation between two national contenders. This year, they could be fighting it out for 3rd place in the Alberta Division and the final playoff berth.

I had thought that the Evil Monkeys would be in a battle with MacEwan for 3rd place in the Alberta Division. After a remarkable pre-season, where they went 5-1-0 against a solid slate of CW opposition, and 4-0-0 against ACAC opposition, things were looking up for Alberta. Usually, a team’s pre-season record is reflective of at least their early regular season record. That remains true for the other 34 teams in U-Sports, but not the Monkeys. They opened with a sweep of MacEwan, but are now on a 4-game losing streak. Those losses were to the Bisons and MRU, so it may be the case that those two and Sask are simply above the rest of the teams. In any event, I don’t see Alberta holding on to a #5 national ranking.

The bigger question is: What is up with the Disappointing Dinos? They have 22 returning veterans, which usually infers a high degree of consistency. I guess they have been consistent, just a notch below contender-level play. Last weekend’s sweep at the hands of MacEwan has their backs to the wall.

What should we expect here? Well, Alberta swept MacEwan, and MacEwan swept Calgary. However, Calgary had a 3-point weekend against MRU, and MRU swept Alberta. Whichever side loses on Friday night will be under immense pressure on Saturday.

➤ MRU: Team Website

These teams have had no common opponents in the regular season. MRU has played each of their three Alberta Division opponents, and UBC has stuck to a non-Alberta menu. However, UBC swept a pre-season series between these teams.

Last year, UBC was in first place with a 23-2-3 record. Thus, one more loss and they will assure themselves of a reduced record this year. Also, last year MRU was second (and first in their division) with a 20-6-2 record. They could easily repeat that record.

The Bluegars may well be the only Alberta to meet or exceed expectations this season. They are currently looking at running away with the Alberta Division, while UBC is tied with Regina for 3rd place in Division B.

MacEwan has the bye this week but they still have three links - two from their site and one from CW Prezly. Sam Simard was CW Player of the Week, and 1st star at MacEwan. This is the second week in a row where these honours went to a player on a team with a bye week.

November 6, 2026: BISONS FALL APART IN 3RD PERIOD

Goal: Man: Holt (28 shots, 22 saves), Reg: Cunningham (26 shots, 25 saves)

What a disaster!

Actually, this one was tied after two periods and the Bisons started the 3rd period on the powerplay. They had controlled most of the territory and possession, the powerplay has been good this year, so there was optimism. However, Braden Holt whiffed on a Banjo-Cat dump-in from the left side of the blueline, and this opened the floodgates. From then on, nothing went right for the Herd. Regina had 5 goals on 11 shots in the 3rd period.

This looked like it was going to be a beat-down. The Banjo-Mutts outshot Holy Trinity 25-4 in the 1st period, en route to a 2-0 lead. Those pesky Spartans never gave up, and it was a tight battle the rest of the way. Trinity deserves a win already. They are definitely better than their record.

The T-irds scored a minute into the 3rd period to open up a 3-1 lead. Then blew it. If the playoffs started today, UBC would be watching on CWTV. I guess the Bluegars would, as well, since they would have a quarter-final bye and would want to see who they would be playing in the semi-finals.

Goal: Alta: Langkow (27 shots, 25 saves), Calg: Tetachuk (22 shots, 19 saves)

The Dinos outshot the Evil Monkeys 10-2 in the 1st period and that stat was indicative of the play. However, it was 0-0. The rest of the game was even, and the Monkeys cashed in. As a result, if the playoffs started today, the Dinos would join UBC watching on CWTV. The Monkeys would be coming to Friendly Manitoba to face the Bisons.
