It has been an eventful year both on and off the ice for the Humboldt Broncos over the last year. A coaching change created a busy summer as Scott Barney stepped down as Head Coach in June to accept the Head Coach/GM job with the Sudbury Wolves of the Onario Hockey League. Brayden Klimosko eventually became the team’s new head coach in July.  

On the ice, the season was shorter than what everyone would want, following an exit in the opening round of the playoffs. 

It will be a second straight trip to Ontario for the Saskatchewan Roughriders. 

Following last week’s win in Hamilton, the Roughriders will head to the “Big Smoke” to meet the Toronto Argonauts.  

After plenty of movement on their roster through the first two weeks, the green and white will only be making two changes to their lineup this week.
