Broncos Get Set For 2nd Half
DEC 27 - The Swift Current Broncos players are back in town and are getting prepared for the 2nd half of the season with their first home games in two weeks taking place this weekend.
The Broncos players returned to the city on Boxing Day and have resumed their regular practice schedule.
This Friday night the Broncos are set to host the Prince Albert Raiders and will then host the Medicine Hat Tigers on Saturday night.
The Broncos will enter action on the weekend in 2nd place in the East Division and will look to seperate the gap between them and the Raiders who are in 3rd and trail the Broncos by just 2 points.
Saturday's game will also mark the 20th anniversary of the Broncos bus crash which claimed the lives of four former players: #8 Trent Kresse, #9 Scott Kruger, #11 Brent Ruff, #22 Chris Mantyka. The Broncos will have a moment of silence prior to puck drop on Saturday night in memory of these four players. For more information on the bus crash, please click here.
Saturday night will also be another chance for fans to purchase a Broncos 3rd jersey. Dane Crowley's 3rd jersey will be on a silent auction throughout the night and fans will be able to bid on the jersey in the lobby area throughout the game. The silent auction will close at the 10:00 minute mark of the 3rd period. University and college students won't want to miss out on this game as those with a student card will be able to attend this game for just $8. More information on this offer will be coming later today!
Also, congratulations to Bob Johnson of Abbey, SK who was the $500 major prize winner on December 24th for the Broncos Lottery Calendar. To view a list of winners, please click here. The winners list is updated throughout the season.
