Last Years RBC Cup Finalist Knocked Out Early:

BRONCOS DETHRONED

Monday, March 01, 2010

The Humboldt Broncos have been unseated as SJHL Credit Union Cup champions, meaning the SJHL will have a new champ for the first time since 2006.

The La Ronge Ice Wolves completed a three game series sweep on Monday night by blanking the Broncos 3-0 in game three of the best of five Bauer Conference Survivor Series.

Goalie Adam Bartko shutout the Broncos for the final 98:33 of the series as he helped La Ronge win in double overtime on Saturday and then posted a shutout tonight (Monday).

Doug Lindensmith and Marc-Andre Carre each had two goals and two assists in the series.

Humboldt won the 2007, 2008, and 2009 league crowns. They were RBC Cup champs in 2003, 2008 and RBC Cup bridesmaids in 2009.

La Ronge will now travel to Flin Flon for game one of the Bauer Conference Semi-Final Series, believed to be Friday night (watch SJHL website for schedule posting).
Meanwhile, the Yorkton Terriers (winners of the two previous SJHL Championships in 2005 & 2006) are on the brink of eliminating the Melville Millionaires.

The Terriers beat Melville 3-1 to take a 2-games-to-1 lead in the series. They can wrap it up at home on Tuesday. Should they do that, the Weyburn Red Wings would host the Terriers Friday night for game one of the Sherwood Conference Semi-Final Series.

Melfort is at Battlefords on Saturday in the other Bauer Conference Semi-Final.

Kindersley is in Notre Dame on Saturday in the other Sherwood Conference Semi-Final.
