Carstar Okotoks Bisons Seek Fourth Straight Win
The Carstar Okotoks Bisons are riding high after a three-game winning streak and will look to continue their momentum this weekend as they host the Calgary Canucks for a pair of games at the Pason Centennial Arena.
The Bisons, currently sitting in second place in the AJHL South Division, have been playing some of their best hockey of the season. Their most recent win, a 4-3 overtime victory over the Drumheller Dragons, showcased their ability to battle back from a deficit and find a way to win.
Goaltender Ethan Barwick has been a key factor in the team's recent success. He stopped 35 shots against the Dragons, earning his second win in a row. Forward Carter Savoie continued his hot scoring streak, tallying two goals in the win.
The Canucks, on the other hand, are struggling to find their footing. They currently sit in last place in the South Division with a record of 12-26-1-1. They are coming off a 4-1 loss to the Brooks Bandits and will need to find a way to generate more offense if they want to be competitive against the surging Bisons.
Key Players to Watch:
- Carstar Okotoks Bisons: Carter Savoie, Ethan Barwick, Ethan Sloboda, Josh Tarzwell, and Jaxon Clayton.
- Calgary Canucks: Cole Schwebius, Ethan Gonsalves, Ethan Jones, and Noah King.
Looking ahead:
This weekend's series presents a great opportunity for the Bisons to solidify their position in the South Division standings. They'll need to continue their strong play and find ways to shut down the Canucks' offense.
The Canucks will be looking to pull off the upset and gain some much-needed momentum. They'll need to find a way to generate more offensive chances and limit the Bisons' scoring opportunities.
The games are scheduled for Friday and Saturday night at 7:00 PM at the Pason Centennial Arena. Be sure to check out the Bisons' website for tickets and more information.
