The Battlefords AAA Stars are finally back in action, as they began their U18 season on the road against one of the new teams in the league, the Warman Wildcats.

Playing out of Legends Centre, Warman is one of two new teams in the U18 league this season, along with the Estevan Bears. But it proved to be a rough baptism for the Wildcats into the league, as the Stars hammered the Wildcats 4-0.

The Stars opened the scoring with a goal by Daitan Dmytriw on the power play from Kobie Anderson and Jordan Grill to make it 1-0 early on in the first period.

Anderson made it 2-0 shortly after, and Matthew Henry made it 3-0 midway through the period.

That score held up until late in the third period when Rylan Williams scored into an empty net for the 4-0 final score.

Jackson Fellner went all 60 minutes for the Stars, getting the win and the shutout on 41 shots. Warman’s Dylan Marshall stopped 32 of 35.

The Stars have their first home game Saturday afternoon at 4:30 p.m. against the Saskatoon Blazers, with the Blazers hosting the return match Sunday afternoon.
