The Northern Manitoba Blizzard ended up splitting their two-game set against the Monarchs, blanking them 7-0 on Tuesday before falling 6-2 in yesterday’s contest.

The Blizz now have their sights set on tomorrow and Saturday’s matchups against the Selkirk Steelers here at home. Selkirk is currently the number-one team in the entire league in terms of overall points.

The Blizz, meanwhile, are in a three-way tie for second with both Swan Valley and Virden. A successful weekend could easily propel them to the top of the MGEU West Division.

Puck drop for both tomorrow and Saturday’s games is set for 7:00 p.m. Blizz fans should keep in mind that only two out of ten games this month will be played on the road, meaning there’s plenty of hockey action to take in for Blizz fans of all ages.
