Broncos Head to Moose Jaw Tonight

The Swift Current Broncos head to Moose Jaw on Saturday night for the third match-up of the season with the Warriors.

They lost 3-2 in a shootout in the first meeting before beating the Warriors 7-1 on Remembrance Day.

"They're a hard team for us to play and they play their building really hard," said Broncos Coach/GM Mark Lamb. "Hopefully we've got some energy and we can get some lines together and we can re-find some chemistry with some guys out."

The Broncos are a banged up group and have been battling the flu as they get set for their 12th game in 23 days this month. Coda Gordon, Justin Spagrud, Tanner LeSann and Dakota Odgers are all still injured.

The fatigue was evident in losses to Brandon and Prince Albert earlier this week that saw the Broncos only score 2 combined goals.

"You just keep doing the same things," Lamb said. "We hvaen't had a power play in those last two games either. We'll create on our power play we just haven't had a chance to get one."

"Whether it's our doing or not moving and creating chances to pull us down. That's one way to do it."

Lamb is hopeful he can get an injured player or two back on Saturday night. 16-year-old Brandan Arnold is also still with the team after being called up from Midget AAA on Wednesday.
