A much improved Swift Current Squad start the season off with a bang in scoring 8 times with a much better offensive attack in 12-13 to be sure.  Offensive catylist Kole Lind led the way with 1-2-3, Jarrett Gerlach scored a pair of goals while '99 Cole Keenleyside and Dylan Rossiter also had 3 point games.  For Yorkton, Brayden Miller had 2-1-3 and a pair of '99 born forwards Tyler Stratechuk and Logan Foster had multiple point games for Yorkton in the loss.

Alberta - AMBHL Action
Saturday Result - Late
Calgary Northstar Sabers 9 - Okotoks Oilers 0
The Northstar Sabres are doing exactly what we thought they'd do this year and that is being much improved as they move to 3-0-0 with an easy 9-0 win.  Parker Aucoin scored 3 goals, all of which were SH markers in the win, he also added an assist.  Aucoin, who we have ranked in the first round now has 7-2-9 in 3 games to start this season.  Brett Campbell scored his first two goals of the season for Calgary and Logan Drackett stopped all 26 shots he faced for the SO.  Calgary fired 50 shots on the young Okotoks squad, who feature 7 - 99 born players.
