We picked up our game and competed all night but fell 5-6 in OT to the Knights. Ethan Mack and Jon Milligan both scored 2 goals with Blair Bush the other. Assisting the goals were Jon Milligan, Tyler Hamilton (3), Blair Bush (3), Ethan Mack (2) and Marcus McEachern. Shots 32-38, PP 2-5 and PK 1-3. It was a fast paced game that had a little of everything, we got better in a couple areas but left a point on the board. Not even a little bit close to how we wanted to play and we lost 6-7 to the Bruins. We got goals from Jon Milligan (2), Ethan Mack, Marcus McEachern (2) and Alonso Tapia with assists to Jon Milligan (2), Ethan Mack (3), Blair Bush (3) and Cole Isaac (2). Shots 46-40, PP 1-4 and PK 3-4. Sloppy was the name of the game and letting things slip away at the end. Winning Team 8-4 on top of the Icemen. Ethan Mack scored the Hattrick with Jon Milligan (2), Cole Isaac, Marcus McEachern and Dustyn Chetek the others. Assists going to Marcus McEachern (4), Jon Milligan (4), Alonso Tapia, Alex Lemieux (2), Simon Danforth (his 1st point as a Royal), Owen Salacki, Ethan Mack, Jason Roberts and Billy Hicks. Shots 65-22, PP 1-4 and PK 3-4. We played hard and got better for 53 minutes then... the last few. Guys will start to be rewarded for the work they are putting in in the offensive zone soon. The Belt was awarded to Cole (wrap around) Isaac. We made a good comeback to tie things up but fell 3-4 in OT to the Chiefs. Alex Lemieux started the scoring in the 1st with Ethan Mack getting 2 in the 3rd. Assists to Billy Hicks, Marcus McEachern (2), Luke Woodrow and Jon Milligan. Shots 33-37, PP 2-7 and PK 4-6. It was kind of a sloppy game with both goalies making key saves to keep things tight. We got a little better last night. This was a good game with plenty of chances both ways, but we came out on the short end of the scoreboard, as we lose 2-5 to the Jets. Marcus McEachern and Jon Milligan scored from Ethan Mack (2), Jon Milligan and Blair Bush. Shots 37-28, PP 0-4 and PK 3-4. We needed a little help from the goal posts (will you just stay in place) and didn't get it. Scoring on your opportunities is important and change the flow of the game. It's way more fun after a solid win - 8-5 over Sherwood Park. Ethan Mack had a huge night with 3 goals and 4 assists, Marcus McEachern's 4 goals and 1 assist game looked tiny, Owen Salacki scored the other goal. The rest of the assists to Tyler Hamilton (2), Tyler Gordon, Jon Milligan (2), Luke Woodrow (3) and Josh Bentley. Shots 44-51, PP 2-5 and PK 2-2. Playing with a couple more defensemen helps to keep the play going the right way. Ethan Mack was awarded the Belt. We lost the special teams part of the game and lost on the scoreboard 3-6 to the Hawks. Ethan Mack scored his 1st goal as a Royal and Marcus McEachern added 2 more, with assists going to Marcus McEachern, Ethan Mack (2), Jon Milligan and Nolan Conroy. Shots 48-35, PP 0-4 and PK 2-4. We see some light at the end of the tunnel and need to get there soon. We didn't score very many goals this weekend - 0-5 to Warriors. Sots 35-56, PP 0-1 PK 0-0. We have a very tired group that hopes to get a few back for this weekend. Look out when we get to dress 20. No one saw this coming 1-13 loss to the Chiefs. Marcus McEachern scored from Jon Milligan and Jared Stocks. Shots 34-42, PP 0-4 and PK 4-4. It's a good thing that games like this don't happen very often. Let's park it and move on - shit happens sometimes. We took lots of high hits to earn the 2 points in our 2-1 win against the Regals. Ethan Zurawell and Marcus McEachern scored from Luke Woodrow, Nolan Conroy, Jon Milligan and Jake Langley. Shots 43-35, PP 0-4 and PK 2-3. We needed to score on our chances and put the game away, but we came for 2 points and earned them. Marcus McEachern was awarded the Belt. The trip north didn't have the result we were looking for 4-6 to the Red Wings. We got 1st goals as a Royal from Nathan Brown and Tyler Hamilton with Jared Stocks and Dustyn Chetek chipping in. Assists to Marcus McEachern, Jon Milligan, Josh Bentley, Nolan Conroy and Ethan Zurawell. Shots 42-31, PP 1-2 and PK 2-3. Lots of things went right but a few goof ups at both ends of the ice shot us down. We will keep working on the consistency that our play needs in order to play our best. Good times as we win 3-2 over the Riggers. Goals from Dustyn Chetek, Marcus McEachern and Alonso Tapia were nice. With assists to Jason Roberts, Billy Hicks, Luke Woodrow, Jared Stocks, Dustyn Chetek and Tyler Hamilton. Shots 49-41, PP 1-5 and PK 5-5. It's funny how the penalties are always even with that guy. We kept pushing the pace of play and it finally paid off, now if we shot the puck into all those open nets we created life would be great. The Belt was awarded to Brody Dietrich. If you are interested the Belt Talk videos are on our Twitter page click on the icon above. Friday night was good, we skated to a 8-5 victory out in Fort Sask. Dustyn Chetek started the scoring, with his 1st as a Royal, Luke Woodrow, Billy Hicks, Jared Stocks (2), Alonso Tapia (2) and Marcus McEachern. Ref guy was lazy with assists and being in position to make the calls - assists to Alex Lemieux, Ethan Zurawell, Dustyn Chetek, Alonso Tapia, Jason Roberts, Jon Milligan (2), Marcus McEachern (2) and Luke Woodrow. Shots 49-31, PP 1-7 and PK 5-7. We played hard, quick and fast - this showed up on the scoreboard. The Belt was awarded to Dustyn Chetek. We fall to the Bruins 3-4. Marcus McEachern scored 2 goals and Luke Woodrow the other. Assists were awarded to Jon Milligan (2), Owen Salacki, Marcus McEachern, Luke Woodrow and Nathan Brown. Shots 51-38, PP 1-3 and PK 1-1. We need to stop shooting the puck into to other goalies logo. We are getting close. In our 1st overtime and shootout game we were victorious 4-3 over the Mustangs. Scoring in regular time - Luke Woodrow, Jon Milligan and Jared Stocks - in the shootout Jon Milligan and Luke Woodrow with the winner. Assists to Alex Lemieux (2), Jon Milligan (2), Billy Hicks and Nathan Brown. Brody stopped 2 shooters in the shootout. Shots 50-27, PP 1-5 and PK 6-6. There is always so much nerves energy in OT, that adds to the fun. Brody was awarded the Belt. This was a fast paced game that had a bad final score 1-2 against the Merchants. Jon Milligan scored from Blair Bush and Jake Manners. Shots 28-32, PP 0-1 and PK 1-1. We liked a lot about the game (except the final score). But the lack of extra legs caught up to us in the end. Hopefully there will be a couple new faces in the lineup next week. There is joy in Mudville as we win 6-5 against the Chiefs. Goals from Blair Bush, Marcus McEachern, Jon Milligan, Alex Lemieux (2) and Jason Roberts set the pace. Making the passes Cole Isaac, Josh Bentley, Nathan Brown, Ethan Zurawell (2), Luke Woodrow (2), Alex Lemieux (2), Marcus McEachern, Jon Milligan and Blair Bush. Shots 39-49, PP 2-4 and PK 5-5. It looks like this was our last game with short players and we like that. The boys never got down on themselves and fought till the end, we took care of the top line. The Belt was awarded to Alex Lemieux. We played a stinker and lost to the Riggers 3-8. Jon Milligan scored (again 2) and Ethan Zurawell (his 1st as a Royal) with assists going to Marcus McEachern, Jared Stocks, Luke Woodrow and Blair Bush. Shots 46-41, PP 1-5 and PK 2-3. We cut down the pims but forgot how to play defense and compete hard. We are getting closer to being healthy. Once again not the score we wanted 3-6 to the Flyers. Luke Woodrow (1st as a Royal) got us going with Jon Milligan and Owen Salacki scoring the others. Setting them up Jason Roberts, Alonso Tapia, Luke Woodrow, Blair Bush, Jon Milligan and Alex Lemieux. Shots 49-50, PP 2-8 and PK 9-11. I think we played smarter in the 3rd but the ref guy got in over his head then we took some stupid ones to give the game away. We will get a couple guys back in our next few games and hopefully start playing for all 60 minutes. It was looking like a fun night out in the Park... till the 3rd as we lose 4-6. Discipline is key to winning. Blair Bush started the scoring with Jared Stocks, Jon Milligan and Alex Lemieux the rest. Assisting the goals Luke Woodrow, Jon Milligan (3), Alonso Tapia, Owen Salacki and Blair Bush. Shots 35-39, PP 3-8 and PK 6-10. Staying focused is key and we have been getting tired then losing focus and losing the game. Lets improve. The short bench caught up with us in our 6-9 loss to the Hawks.

Setting up the goals were Alonso Tapia, Jared Stocks (2), Jon Milligan (2), Marcus McEachern (3), Alex Lemieux (2), Jason Roberts and Nolan Conroy. Shots 26-50, PP 1-4 and PK 6-7. Our lack of discipline hurt us and took a toll on our energy level. With COVID rules about vaccinations coming in we will lose a couple guys but should get a couple back from injury. We started the season on the right foot as we skated to a 7-3 win out in Wetaskiwin. It was a rare Saturday night game but very successful.

The real season gets going on Saturday night out in Wetaskiwin with a Celebration of Life tribute for Rob Hartnell (ex coach) going on before the game. Home opener Sunday as we host the Fort Sask. Hawks an yes we are back at Confederation, see you there. Lots of speed and scoring in the preseason windup 13-1 final against the Icemen.
