In a Friday night clash of the titans in Flin Flon, the Bombers bested Humboldt 5-1.

Well, this one was kind of weird, but the Bombers got it done once more against Estevan, winning their last showcase game 6-1.

Flin Flon opened the SJHL showcase with an emphatic victory, overcoming an early deficit to win 8-1.

The Creighton Kodiaks and Hapnot JV Kweens each hosted their own tournaments last weekend - and each won on their home court.

The good news kept coming for Noah Houle this week. Fresh off of being named the SJHL's defenceman of the month, Houle has committed to an NCAA Division I team for next year.

Flin Flon's Hunter Lee is heading home with a bronze medal from the Pan Am Games.

Flin Flon may have bent Thursday night, but they didn't break, beating rivals Melfort 5-4 in a passionate tilt.

Three Bomber players have received high praise from the SJHL for their play in October. Jacob Vockler, Alexi Sylvestre and Noah Houle each earned monthly awards from the league Nov. 1.

The Flin Flon Bombers, for the time being at least, are at the top of the mountain. The team is ranked as Canada's top junior A squad this week for the first time in over two decades.

Too little, too late - A late surge wasn't enough to keep the Bombers' win streak going, as Melville handed Flin Flon their first regulation loss this season.
