Oct. 5 - The Battlefords North Stars got their tenth win in 11 games Saturday night in Weyburn, as they decisively topped the Red Wings 4-1.

The story of the game was the return of Matthias Urbanski to the ice one day after being cut in the face by a skate in a game versus Estevan the night before. Urbanski scored twice in the win for the North Stars in Weyburn.

Urbanski got the North Stars second goal of the game in the second period, and then with the score 2-1, Urbanski scored again late in the third to put the game out of reach.

It was also a big night for Captain Matthew Fletcher, who scored the first North Stars goal in the first period and their fourth goal in the third period. Fletcher also assisted on both of Urbanski’s goals.

Ben Hiltz scored the only Weyburn goal in the third period.

Shots favoured the North Stars 32-24 with Adam Dmyterko getting the win. A particular highlight for Dmyterko was stopping a penalty shot by Keegan Callander in the second period.

The North Stars have one more road game before returning to the Battlefords, in Melfort Wednesday night for a Finals rematch with the Mustangs.
