Tonight’s Matchup: vs the Flyers: Starting on time is a must tonight against the visiting Winkler Flyers. The Stampeders found out last night that if you play with fire, you will eventually get burned. Swan Valley will need a full 60 minute effort from their entire lineup if they hope to stay atop the MGEU West Division with just 10 games left in the season.
Last Game: 6-5 loss to Winnipeg Freeze: The Stampeders had their four game win streak snapped by the Winnipeg Freeze at the Centennial Arena Friday night. Winnipeg scored three straight goals in the first, one in the second and added two more in the third period to earn their fourth win of the season.
