Two Weeks 'Till We Play for Keeps

The Broncos are on the road tonight in Moose Jaw for one of three remaining pre-season games. Two weeks from tonight these same two teams will meet in the season opener.

I'm not expecting tonight's game to be a regular season preview by any means - a combined nine players are away at NHL camps which will drastically change both team's lineups. I expect both Swift Current and Moose Jaw (more so Moose Jaw) to ice a young team for the pre-season tilt.

I'll be attending and will blog a recap later.

So far in the pre-season the Broncos are 2-1 following a three game Edmonton tournament. Moose Jaw has lost both pre-season match-ups with Prince Albert and are 0-2.

The Broncos return home tonight and then head to Brandon early in the morning to take on the Wheat Kings.

We are still working on getting our first broadcast together. Hopefully we will have the final pre-season game next Friday in Kindersley when the Broncos take on the Regina Pats.

Look for a recap late tonight or tomorrow....

My day didn't start off the best as it included a trip to the emergency room in our fancy new hospital. A morning show bit gone wrong is the best way to describe it.

We were promoting the next "Speedy Creek Racing" stock car event this Sunday and had a live to radio tire changing competition on Central Avenue just after 8am. When pulling the tire off the studs I caught my wrist on the jagged frame above the wheel well.

A pretty nice clean cut on the top of the wrist by that little bone resulted in four stitches. Not a big deal but enough to throw a kink into a regular Friday morning.

Have a good weekend,

Jon
