It is the weekend that everyone has been waiting for,  with two of the most exciting teams in the SJHL ready to go head to head.

 

The red hot Flin Flon Bombers will host the high flying Weyburn Red Wings in a pair of games tonight and tomorrow at the Whitney Forum.

 

The Bombers just wrapped up a very successful 4 game road trip where they were able to collect 7 out of a possible 8 points. The only blemish was a 3 to 2 OT loss to the Wings, which was their only loss in the entire month of January.

 

Weyburn has beaten Flin Flon  in both matchups so far this season and have actually taken 9 of the last 12 meetings head to head, including last Spring's SJHL Semi Final in 6 games.

 

For what ever reason,  Weyburn has had the Bombers number especially at the Whitney Forum winning 4 of the last 5 games.

 

Saying that, the Bombers are really rolling this year with the best record in the league at 31-9-1-1, good for 64 points. Not to mention they are a perfect 18-0 at home but should get a really good test this weekend.

 

The Wings are sitting third overall at 26-13-1-2 and are currently two points behind second place Battleford and just one point up on the fourth place Yorkton Terriers and Nipawin Hawks.

 

This is a huge weekend for Weyburn who not only want to get closer to the Bombers, but stay ahead of Yorkton and Nipawin.
