Many players have been in grande prairie but nobody goes there as second years. Guhle Last years third overall pic played there as a first year and higson yaremko jarett cote and others left there this year.
Melville outshot Estevan 37 to 26. Stellar performance by goalie Carter Phair.
I noticed that about GP as well, I'm sure the program would pick up if these players decided to stay.
