October 27, 2023: BISONS EDGED BY BLUEGARS


MOUNT ROYAL COUGARS 4

➤ MRU: Team Website


Quick Summary
MRU: R. Holmes (06:41 2nd), C. Bouchard (10:10 3rd), J. Senkoe (12:48 3rd), R. Holmes (19:30 3rd)
Man: T. Apetagon (16:41 2nd), C. Veloso (04:55 3rd)
Goal: MRU: Farkas (22 shots, 20 saves); Man: Thronton (37 shots, 34 saves)

The Bisons had a strong performance in this one. They were again limited to five defencemen. On the other hand, the Bluegars had some injured forwards and played some defencemen up front. I’d much rather play with too many, rather than too few, defencemen. The last time the Bisons finished first they played half the season with 8 or defencemen in their line-up. Their 4th line of defencemen was effective. They had a plus-minus of one goal scored and one goal allowed, IIRC, which is pretty good for a 4th line.

Here’s how they lined up:

MANITOBA:
Goal:
30 Thornton (34 Hawryluk)

Defence:
16 Hartje - 5 Casey
8 Toth - 4 Malchuk
25 Calder

Forwards:
20 Apetagon - 18 Hooker - 21 Basarab
29 King - 9 Thiessen - 17 Veloso
10 Paulhus - 19 Arpin - 11 Ostir
14 Zimmerman - 28 Behun - 12 Trimble - 26 Boucher

Scratches:
G: 1 Harkness
D: 6 Fry - 24 Wareham - 27 Gottfried
F: 13 Sutter - 23 Fawkes

MOUNT ROYAL:
Goal:
31 Farkas (35 Sims)

Defence:
25 Aquilon - 21 Hanus
4 Smythe - 16 Blake
5 Ladyman - 2 Walker

Forwards:
10 Holmes - 27 Senkoe - 12 Bouchard
3 Gould 11 Martens - 22 Hakim
17 Kernaghan - 8 Moe - 18 Stevenson
28 Rawji - 20 Zandee - 19 Miliken

Scratches:
G: 33 Wray
D: none
F: 9 Hiemstra - 13 Standen - 24 Rowland - 26 Englot

The Bisons held a 2-1 lead in the 3rd period and looked like they could win this one. The Bluegars tied it on a controversial PP goal mid-way through the 3rd, and added the go-ahead goal a couple minutes later. An empty-netter put it away for MRU.

I re-watched that 2nd MRU goal on CWTV, and the scorer was definitely in the crease with both skates and stopped Thornton from being able to dive on the puck. Maybe the Bisons have a break coming their way on Saturday afternoon.


Tony Apetagon scored on a deflection.

Goal: UBC: Lane (16 shots, 14 saves); MacU: Abel (45 shots, 40 saves)

The T-irds dominated the stats line in this one. It was almost over when I go home from the Bison game, so I watched the end of the Sask v TWU game instead. It would be hard to find odds against a UBC sweep.

Goal: TWU: Sommer (32 shots, 27 saves); Sask: Ross (23 shots, 23 saves)

I saw the ending of this one, and what I saw was the Banjo-Mutts passing it around with Holy Trinity giving chase. That said, at the very ending it looked like the Spartans broke the shutout. Where is the video review when you need it? A split of this series would shock me.

Quick Summary
MRU: M. Ladyman (04:08 1st), R. Holmes (19:24 1st), C. Blake (07:57 2nd), D. Kernaghan (09:03 3rd), C. Bouchard (19:24 3rd)

Goal: MRU: Sims (17 shots, 15 saves); Man: Thronton (34 shots, 30 saves)

With the Rugby World Cup final, Bisons-Dinos football, Jets hockey, and the World Series, it was a tough day to devote sufficient time to each and every game I wanted to watch. I had to forego live attendance at this game. The Bluegars switched goaltenders, but otherwise the line-ups looked alike. As of this post, GoBisons.ca has not updated game stories for the hockey game, nor for the football game.

Sidebar: The football ending was crazy. Last game of the regular season. Bedrock U needs a 13 point win to edge the Bisons out of the final playoff berth. Leading by 20, they fumble on the last play, the Bisons recover for a touchdown, and a 2-point convert made it a 12 point loss, and a playoff berth for the Herd.

On this peculiar CW weekend, this was the feature game of the night. However, it was far from a nail-biter. Captain Hook(er) scored his 5th to bring the Bisons to a 1-1 tie, and Josh Paulhus scored his 2nd to make pull the Bisons to within 4-2. An empty-netter sealed the deal.

This illustrates the gap in the CW. The Bisons may well be the #6 team, and the Bluegars the #5 team. Yet the gulf between the top 5 and bottom 4 continues to be large.

I saw a bit of this one. The Family Guys had a good 1st period, tied 2-2 and shots 11-9 in favour of the T-irds. Eventually, though, UBC took charge and dominated this game. Game stories for the Friday and Saturday games are linked.

Goal: TWU: Audet L (7 shots, 6 saves); Sommer (25 shots, 21 saves); Sask: Ross (23 shots, 23 saves)

Holy Trinity put up a good fight. They took 26 penalty minutes, and Sask scored twice on the PP. That’s back-to-back shutouts by Roddy Ross for the Banjo-Mutts. Sad to say, but even when the Spartans are at their best, they are a couple of levels down from Sask.

The only game story not posted on Saturday was the one at GoBisons.ca. It’s up now. Although late, it is a good summary. The Presto version of the boxscore on the CW schedule & results page does not appear yet for either game on the weekend. I link to the schedule itself in case the CW links it themselves.

Last year the Bisons’ season fell apart when they hosted Holy Trinity. They were 7-9-0 at the end of the 1st semester, ending with a sweep of MacEwan and a split with Sask. After the break they were on a 0-6-0 run, but still had a great shot at a playoff berth with a sweep of TWU. Instead, they played their two worst games of the season, losing 7-1 and winning 7-6 (a game they led 6-2). Four more losses finished the season in an inglorious ending.

The three holy goalies have eerily similar stats. Audet (4.90 GAA, .898 S%, 0-2-0) Sommer (4.90 GAA,.894 S%, 0-5-0), and Berkeliev (5.10 GAA, .906 S%, 0-1-0) are not really the team’s problem. Their cumulative save percentage is comparable to the rest of the league. The team has just 11 goals through eight games. Not one Spartan has more than two points thus far.

The Bisons are improving under their new coach. Even as it is, they may well be the “best of the rest” amongst the bottom four, all desperately trying for that last playoff berth.

I’m not a big fan of Thursday games, likely so scheduled because the CFL Western Semi-Final would have been at the stadium on Saturday had the Bombers finished 2nd.

The CW has become a two-tier league again this year. This is the only inter-tier matchup of the weekend. Here is each team’s record against Tier 1 teams:
Tier 1
U.B.C. 2-0-0
Alberta 3-2-1
M.R.U. 2-2-0
Calgary 1-2-1
Sask. 0-0-0

The linked story is about Dinos’ head coach Mark Howell and video coach Alex Jozsa being named to the staff for the USports v. National Junior Team Selection games on December 12-13. Others named are Brett Gibson (Queen's - head coach), David Urquhart (McGill - assistant coach), Richard Lim (RMC - assistant coach), Jamie Nicholl-Carne (Queen's - equipment manager), and Adam Ellwood (Windsor - athletic therapist).

The Banjo-Mutts have had a weirdly soft schedule thus far. 8-0-0 looks really good, but their four opponents thus far are Manitoba, MacEwan, Regina, and Trinity. They were only 1-4-1 in the pre-season, against a cross-section of teams. So now we’ll see what they have. The Evil Monkeys started with two losses to UBC, but since then are 5-0-1 against a cross-section of opponents. They looked back to their banana-loving selves in rolling over Calgary twice last weekend. This could be the best series to watch this weekend. Of note, their football teams meet on Saturday afternoon in a semi-final game.

Like Sask, the T-irds are 8-0-0 against the bottom four teams. They did open the season with a sweep of the Evil Monkeys. So this series is a chance to prove themselves. The Bluegars look decent, especially after having lost so much talent from last year.

➤ UofM: Team Website


Quick Summary
TWU: J. Penner (00:32 1st), A. Steinke (02:31 1st), C. Lowe (10:56 1st)
Man: J. Hooker (12:58 3rd), H. Ostir (17:33 3rd)
Goal: TWU: Sommer (36 shots, 34 saves); Man: Thornton (30 shots, 27 saves)

Once again, the Bisons had just 5 defencemen available for this one. Here’s how they lined up:

MANITOBA:
Goal:
30 Thornton (34 Hawryluk)

Defence:
16 Hartje - 5 Casey
8 Toth - 4 Malchuk
25 Calder

Forwards:
29 King - 18 Hooker - 17 Veloso
20 Apetagon - 9 Thiessen - 21 Basarab
14 Zimmerman - 19 Arpin - 11 Ostir
10 Paulhus - 28 Behun - 26 Boucher - 12 Trimble

Scratches:
G: 1 Harkness
D: 6 Fry - 24 Wareham - 27 Gottfried
F: 13 Sutter - 23 Fawkes

TRINITY WESTERN
Goal:
31 Sommer (90 Berkeliev)

Defence:
11 McMillen - 6 Fuller
10 Krahn - 43 Pomeroy
44 Cameron - 22 Oates

Forwards:
18 Sartor - 14 Penner - 27 Joss
91 Lowe - 9 Dubois - 26 Perepeluk
93 Spadafora - 16 Steinke - 24 Spafford
19 Vanderhooft - 20 Bruce - 42 Hopps

Scratches:
G:- 1 Labelle - 35 Audet
D: 5 Jurgeneit - 2 Mathys
F: 17 Borynec - 21 Klessens - 94 Johnson

Holy Trinity scored on their first two shots on goal. That had the Bisons looking lost for the 1st period, in which they were outshot 17-7. The Bisons did take control of the 2nd and 3rd periods, outshooting the Spartans 29-13. By the 3rd, the Spartans looked gassed as they were clinging to a lead. The Bisons have to be confident heading into Friday’s rematch. But they needed a sweep to get back into contendership for a playoff berth.

There were some dumb penalties and odd calls of note late in the game. In the last 4 minutes, goaltender Leon Sommer knocked the net off its moorings for the 4th time, and got a minor penalty. In the last 3 minutes, Bison Colton Veloso got 2 minutes for slapping a defenceman’s stick out of his way and sent it flying. Then just 15 seconds later, Holy Trinity’s Michael Spafford thought it would be a good idea to trip the goalie with nobody around them. After the Bisons scored on the latter PP, Thornton went to the bench for an extra attacker. The officials must have lost count, because they blew the whistle as the Bisons entered the offensive zone then had a face-off at centre ice. The Bisons mounted another attack and there was a battle for the puck in the TWU corner. Suddenly we heard a whistle. Why? Nobody knows. However the face-off came out of the TWU zone.

TWU: R. Perepeluk (03:32 1st), K. McMillen (18:22 1st), L. Spadafora (18:00 2nd), L. Fuller (10:27 3rd), M. Joss (11:51 3rd)
Man: D. Thiessen (06:45 1st), J. Hooker (19:49 2nd)
Goal: TWU: Sommer (24 shots, 22 saves); Man: Thornton (34 shots, 29 saves)

After a strong finish on Thursday, the Bisons had no follow-up in this one. I could not attend in person due to car trouble, and had to rely on CWTV. Unfortunately, the stream would not connect for most of the first half of the game. The Bisons had just one line-up change, Eric Fawkes subbing in for Cameron Trimble. The Bisons now need a sweep of their own in Regina next weekend.

It seems the Bisons have made themselves into a team that tries to contain superior opponents, not to crush the weaker teams. Of the Tier 2 teams, they give the Tier 1 teams the most problems. Yet they are 0-4-0 head-to-head against the Tier 2 teams.


opening faceoff


Thiessen in the slot, but no goal here.

With a lot of Friday night overlap, this one was not on my radar. Bedrock U needed a bounce-back win, now they need to complete the sweep.

Goal: Sask: Ross (26 shots, 25 saves); Alta: Kruger (25 shots, 23 saves)

I caught the end of this one, and it was very well played. Both sides had well-organized defensive structure and could be a problem for any opponent. The rematch should be good. Sask has proven they can play at a Tier 1 level. That 5-way race is on, IMO.

The T-irds’ unbeaten streak came to a halt in this one. They outshot the Bluegars 42-22 but that was not enough. After the Bison game, I focused on the Monkeys/Mutts game so I did not get a real handle on this one.

November 4, 2023: TIER 1 TEAMS SPLIT THEIR SERIES

The Bisons finished their series on Friday night, so all we have is three games from out of town.

Calg: M. Westhaver (14:29 1st), R. Stotts (07:47 2nd), T. Upper (08:55 2nd), Z. Wytinck (10:00 2nd)
Reg: K. Runke (04:54 2nd), J. Davis (18:20 2nd)
Goal: Calg: Tetachuk (17 shots, 15 saves); Reg: Evanoff (44 shots, 40 saves)

On a super busy Saturday (Jets started at 3:00 followed by a smorgasbord of NHL games, two CFL playoff games, and two CW football playoff games), this game was almost lost in the shuffle. But I did see a lot. The score was close than Friday’s, but this was a very dominant performance by Bedrock U. The Banjo-Cats did manage two goals on six shots in the 2nd period. They only had three shots in the 3rd period, hence no chance of a rally.

Goal: Sask: Ross (18 shots, 14 saves); Alta: Berlin (41 shots, 38 saves)

This game was a late-starter so I saw most of it. Sounds funny to say, but the Evil Monkeys were kinda dominated. They have enough skill to cash in their chances. Overall, the split was probably an appropriate result. The Mutts tied the game at 2-2 on a 2nd period penalty shot, awarded whilst short-handed. Now, That’s a rarity. Matt Berlin definitely was the star of the game in the Monkey goal.

Goal: UBC: Lane (22 shots, 18 saves); MRU: Farkas (42 shots, 39 saves)

I was able to see the 1st period of this one. The T-irds built a 5-1 lead and had the Bluegars reeling throughout. MRU put up a bit of a fight thereafter to make the final score reasonable. I’m thinking that the five Tier 1 teams are all capable of beating one another, and expect that most series they play will be splits.

For the first time in a long time, these teams will play just one series against each other this season. This series is pretty much the Herd’s last chance to rally for a playoff berth. The Tier 1 teams in the CW are 28-0 against the Tier 2 teams (four of those in extra time). I don’t see that changing a whole lot. So ground must be made up against the Tier 2 teams. Both sides have been outscored rather heavily, Regina 42-27, and Manitoba 44-19.

Last year, the Bisons swept the games in Banjoland, and Regina swept the games in Winnipeg. The games in Winnipeg opened the second semester and started the Bisons on a 1-10-1 run.

I’ll be looking to see if any defencemen are returning to the Bison lineup. Recent series have seen them play with just five, which is not good.

The Banjo-Mutts were 8-0-0 to start the season, with two wins over each Tier 2 team. However, they split against the Evil Monkeys last weekend and, in my opinion, had the edge in play. IMO, the five Tier 1 teams are hard to handicap right now. The Dinos were receiving a lot of positive attention to start, based on last year’s record and a 6-0-0 pre-season, but they have been 1-1-0 against MRU and 0-1-1 against Alberta. I expect this series to be well worth a good look.

If any series can challenge the one in Saskatown for eager anticipation, it is this home-and-home series for the rivals in Saudi Alberta. These teams thus far have the fewest Tier 1 vs Tier 2 games, the Bluegars having just four and the Evil Monkeys only two. Against Tier 1 teams, MRU is 3-3-0 and Alberta is 4-3-1.

In the Tier 2, there is one playoff berth at stake for whichever team can prevail. Right now, the Family Guys are one point out, and Holy Trinity are two points out. Regina and Manitoba will just be hoping that there is no overtime here.

Yet another loss for the Bisons has them teetering on the brink. I was out at a family dinner but did see most of the goals. In the 3rd period the Bisons were down 2-1 and applied severe pressure, generating some powerplay chances. However, they could not score, Regina scored an insurance marker, and an empty-netter wrapped up the scoring. Both sides went 0-for-6 on their powerplays.

These head-to-head match-ups of Tier 1 teams are key games. Bedrock U sure stuffed the Banjo-Mutts. The Dinos held leads of 3-0 and 5-1 during the game. The Mutts’ starting goaltender Roddy Ross was sent the doghouse early, allowing 3 goals on 8 shots.

Neither of the games in eagerly anticipated series turned out to be worth a dang. The Bluegars led the Evil Monkeys 5-0 after two, and it took a consolation shut-out buster to salvage some pride.

November 11, 2023: BISONS HIT THE WIN COLUMN

➤ UofR: Late Manitoba surge gives Bisons 3-2 win over Cougars (with boxscore)


Quick Summary
Man: J. Hooker (08:42 3rd), C. Veloso (17:08 3rd), J. Arpin (17:37 3rd)
Reg: L. Barlage (17:42 2nd), J. Brook (06:27 3rd)
Goal: Man: Hawryluk (41 shots, 39 saves); Anders (41 shots, 38 saves)

The Bisons have hit the win column at long last. Goaltender Ross Hawryluk made his first start of the season, and had a good game. Each goaltender faced 41 shots. (Kolby Thornton faced 44, and stopped 41, on Friday.)

The Banjo-Cats opened a 2-0 lead early in the 3rd period before the Bisons mounted a rally. Captain Hooker opened the scoring with his 9th of the season on a mid-period powerplay. Colton Veloso scored another powerplay goal with less than three minutes left to play. Jackson Arpin then got the winner just 29 seconds later.

Those game-tying and winning goals happened when the CWTV stream was showing a spinning circle. Now that was aggravating.

After both sides went 0-for-6 on the powerplay on Friday, in this game the Bisons were 2-for-3 and Regina was 1-for-2.

Calg: A. Atwal (03:16 1st), A. Kydd (09:03 1st), R. Stotts (13:30 1st), D. Anderson (17:30 2nd), J. Poole (01:10 3rd)

Goal: Calg: Tetachuk (34 shots, 31 saves); Sask: Kooy (32 shots, 27 saves)

Bedrock U needed this road sweep to build some cred as a nation-wide contender. They built a 3-0 lead after the 1st and then hung on for the win. Of note, the Banjo-Mutts went 2-for-3 on the powerplay. I was unable to catch this one due to a crowded afternoon/early evening schedule which included Jets and Bombers, plus the Bison game starting at 5:00.

Goal: MRU: Sims (42 shots, 38 saves); Alta: Berlin (24 shots, 21 saves)

I was able to catch a lot of this one, due to it being the late game. The Evil Monkeys rallied from a thorough defeat on Friday in Calgary to get their own convincing win back in Edmontown. The last two Monkey goals were empty-netters, however they did really control the play in this one.

Goal: MacU: Abel (33 shots, 30 saves); Sommer (31 shots, 27 saves)

This was the early game of the day and I missed it. The stats say it was very even. The sweep allows The Family Guys to move into the 6th and final playoff spot.

The Bisons are off to the Town of Bedrock this weekend to face the Dinos. Whilst the Dinos started the season racking up the W’s and coasting to a ranking at the top of the national rankings, they have since come back to Earth a little. They are still #3 in the OHT35, and are prohibitive favourites this weekend.

The Dinos are a Tier 1 team, and the Bisons are a Tier 2 team. Tier 1 teams are 28-0 against Tier 2 teams so far, and only 4 of those wins were in extra time. The Bisons have one of those OTLs, and would likely be happy to pick up one or two points in this series.

The Dinos are way better on offence (51 goals, v 22 for the Bisons) and on defence (30 goals against, v 50 for the Bisons). Each side has some stars. Calgary’s Colson Gengenbach leads the CW in goals with 10, but Jonny Hooker has 9 for the Bisons. The Herd also has Chase Hartje on defence, tied for 4th in scoring by a d-man, with 2 goals and 11 assists.

If the Bisons can steal points here, they will need goaltending. Kolby Thornton of the Bisons and Carl Stankowski of the Dinos are tied for 2nd with .908 save percentages. Thus far, the Dinos have split their goaltending between Stankowski and Carl Tetachuk (.899 S%). Bison backup Ross Hawryluk has a .951 S% in the one game he played last weekend.

This home-and-home Battle of Former ACAC Teams is one the Bisons will be following, in hopes that the Bluegars can sweep the Family Guys in regulation time on both nights. The Bluegars look better than I had anticipated. They are solidly in the middle of the five Tier 1 teams.

The Evil Monkeys have had what is, for them, a wonky start. Yet, they are in the range of the national contenders. The Banjo-Cats are having pretty much the start one would expect. They are generally a borderline playoff team, and that looks to be their fate again this year.

This is the feature match-up of the weekend. The rest have Tier 1 v Tier 2, and this one has Tier 1 v Tier 1. The T-irds started with a sweep of Alberta, then had a soft schedule, but for their split with MRU. In comparison, the Banjo-Mutts are 1-1-0 v Alberta and 0-2-0 v Calgary. Both sides are 8-0-0 against Tier 2 teams. These games should be worth a peak.

This series was previously announced for Holy Trinity’s bye weekend, but it is currently not on either team’s schedule. The schedules on the West Coast were in a constant state of flux in pre-season.

Since TWU left the BCIHL, StFU have dominated the BCIHL. So this year they have two sides. The Globetrotters have a (mostly) road schedule against a hodge-podge of non-BCIHL teams, whilst the “2nd” team operates in the BCIHL, where they have a 2-3-1 record. The Globetrotters lost pre-season games to TWU and UBC. They won twice over Briercrest (ACAC)and once over Pittsburgh (ACHA). In addition to their CW losses, they also lost to Adrian College (NCAA D3), and have four losses to NCAA D1 teams (Michigan, Colorado College, Lake Superior State, and Robert Morris).

The Red Leafs hosted that Briercrest series, and have home games pending against Holy Trinity on December 30th and UBC on January 27th.

Quick Summary
Man: C. Behun (18:51 1st)
Calg: C. Gengenbach (02:03 2nd), C. Horning (09:58 3rd)
Goal: Man: Hawryluk (54 shots, 52 saves); Calg: Stankowski (25 shots, 24 saves)

Ross Hawryluk has caught fire in the Bison net, and managed to keep this one close. Maybe we’ll see a rotation in net. A bit of rest is needed once a goaltender has been tenderized with 50+ shots. The 1st period was very close, and a late goal by Cody Behun had the Bisons looking like a potential giant-killer. However, over the final two frames the shots were 38-13 in favour of Bedrock U, and the score flattered the Bisons. On the positive side, defenceman Ryan Gottfried returned to the Bison blueline.

No game stories uploaded as I post.

This marks the first win by a Tier 2 team over a Tier 1 team in the CW this year. Since this started at the same time as the Bison game, I never saw it. This game was in Edmontown, the rematch goes in Calgary on Saturday.

I was able to pick up the 3rd period of this one from the PST zone. The T-irds stunk. Their worst game of the year. The Banjo-Mutts proved that any of the Tier 1 can beat the others any time.
