For Flin Flon, it was a wonderful day for an exorcism. The Bombers avenged their loss in the finals last season, beating the Stars, sweeping the series and heading back to their third-straight SJHL final.

5-2 win. 3-0 series lead. The Bombers have the league semifinal in a stranglehold after a big Game 3 win on the road.

The Bombers are two-nil up on Battlefords, handing the Stars a 6-2 loss in Game 2.

Flin Flon started their semifinal series with a hard-fought 4-3 home win over Battlefords Thursday night.

Creighton Kodiaks basketball star Leland Feuerstein will soon head south for a provincial all-star game - and in doing so, will make history for his school.

The finals are over and the Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation (PBCN) Selects came up short, being swept by Peguis and losing their shot at the league title. The team will now focus on hosting a regional junior B tournament later this month.

The Bombers' second-round playoff opponent will be a very familiar one. Flin Flon will collide with the Battlefords North Stars for the sixth time in the last eight playoffs.

The SJHL playoffs are well underway and the Bombers are once again entering with a title on their minds - and after finishing first in the league for the first time in 23 years, it feels closer than ever.

Semifinals, here we come. The Bombers took the brooms out in Kindersley Wednesday night, surviving a late push to win 2-1 and sweep the Klippers.

The Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation (PBCN) Selects are heading to the KJHL finals. PBCN swept the Nisichawayasihk Cree Nation (NCN) Flames Saturday in Thompson, winning 5-1 and earning a spot in the championship series for the first time.
