The Humboldt Broncos put the cap on 2023 with a win at home over the Notre Dame Hounds on Saturday night.  

That win followed an upset on Friday night when the Weyburn Red Wings edged the Broncos on Friday 5-4. Weyburn owned the first two periods as the Red Wings picked up three goals, one on a power play. The Broncos started the march back three goals down with a Spencer Bell marker at the opening of the third with an assist from Saxen Robertson. Weyburn's Max Monette put the Wings 3 goals up again, but Bell rebounded with a second goal and a third later in the game.  

Travis Bryson scored his 13th of the season on the power play. It just wasn't enough to erase the game's opening flurry by the Wings. 

On Saturday, the Broncos were back with the Hounds, and this time, they put the game away in the second period with four consecutive goals - a back-to-back pair by Travis Bryson and single markers by Marik Mamic and Cage Newans. The Broncos skated into 2024 with the 5-2 win. 

The Broncos have a well-earned Christmas break. They'll be back on the 5th of January in Yorkton. Their first home game is on January 9.
