Humboldt Broncos

The Humboldt Broncos were able to remain undefeated in regulation, although a controversial no-goal call in overtime left fans frustrated and prevented the Broncos from securing victory in a 3-2 loss to the Estevan Bruins on Wednesday night.

For the Humboldt Broncos, it was a tale of two identical games with the final act flipped in this weekend’s twin trials with the Battlefords North Stars. Both games resulted in a 1-all tie at the end of regulation, a thrilling bout of 3 on three overtime, and shootout to decide the victor. 

In Friday’s opener, the only two goals of the game were scored just under four minutes apart in the second frame.  

The Humboldt Broncos returned to the win column with a convincing victory over the Yorkton Terriers on Tuesday night. 

In their third road game of the season, the Broncos corralled into Westland Insurance Arena and tamed the Yorkton Terriers in all areas of the game, scoring two shorthanded goals, two powerplay goals, and three even strength to pick up a 7-2 win. 

The Humboldt Broncos split the home and home matchup against the Nipawin Hawks this weekend, and in doing so, endured their first loss of the season.  

Friday night’s matchup in Nipawin was certainly their toughest test of the season, but the Broncos found a way to secure a passing grade and remained undefeated with a 3-2 victory over the Hawks. 

The Humboldt Broncos couldn’t have scripted a better way to start the 2023-24 SJHL Season. 

In their home-opener at the Elgar Petersen Arena, the Broncos gave the fans everything they could cheer for in a 5-0 shutout victory over the Notre Dame Hounds on Saturday Night. 

The Humboldt Broncos face the Flin Flon Bombers on home ice tonight at the EPA. The Broncos have shored up the personnel between the pipes with a pre-deadline acquisition. 

The Broncos have signed 2003 born, free-agent goaltender Jared Picklyk from the Lethbridge Hurricanes of the WHL.

The Humboldt Broncos are shoring up the lineup heading into the holiday season.

The Humboldt Broncos have bolstered their crease acquiring 20-year-old goaltender Hayden Dunford from the BCHL’s Merritt Centennials in exchange for future considerations.
Dunford is a 6’5” goaltender from Guelph, ON who has spent part of the last two seasons in the BCHL.
This season with the Centennials, Dunford has posted a 1-5-0 record with a 5.77 GAA and .841 SV%. Prior to moving across the country, he produced strong numbers in the GOJHL in Ontario with the Caledonia Corvairs, suiting up for six games, with a 3.00 GAA and .922 SV%.

The Humboldt Broncos called in some experience for their second preseason game of the season as they squared off with the Nipawin Hawks in the back half of a home and home weekend set on Saturday night.

The Broncos, as opposed to Friday night where they dressed just one 20-year-old, had 12 additional veterans enter the lineup for their first preseason action on Saturday. The influx of experience paved the way to a 4-1 win where they outshot the Hawks 53-21.

The scoreboard didn’t dictate a victory for the Humboldt Broncos on Friday night as they fell to the Nipawin Hawks, but there was a lot to be optimistic about.

The Humboldt Broncos travelled to Nipawin to start their preseason schedule on Friday night. The lineup featured just two returning players. one 20-year-old, and three 16-year-olds, as the coaching staff got a great look at some young talent trying to crack the opening day roster come September 17th.
