There’s nothing sweeter in hockey than winning a big game on home ice. Last weekend, the Flin Flon bantam Bombers, no strangers to big wins lately, got to feel the joy of hometown tournament gold.

Team comes home riding seven-game winning streak

Flin Flon’s bantam AA Bombers continued their red-hot start to the season this month, winning their third consecutive tournament without losing a game.

Last week was chock full with big wins and dynamic deals for the Flin Flon Bombers.

The Flin Flon Bombers were well-represented at this year’s SJHL Showcase.

Two former Flin Flon Bombers have helped the Michigan Technological University men’s hockey team succeed. Both Alex Smith and Greyson Reitmeier are among the top six scorers for the NCAA Division I squad this season.

It may have been a nail-biter, but the Flin Flon Bombers answered the call Saturday night, earning one of their biggest wins of the season against division rivals Melfort.

For Isaac Jackson, it has been a dream come true to wear the maroon and white for three seasons. The 20-year-old defenceman grew up going to Flin Flon Bombers games at the Whitney Forum.

The Bombers grabbed a 5-3 win over the Melfort Mustangs Friday night, earning their second straight win over a division rival.

It may be a few months late, but Carson Lee has hit the podium at a world championship event. Lee has been awarded the bronze medal for the 2018 United World Wrestling (UWW) Cadet World Championship, which was held in Croatia last July.
