The Warriors Hockey Academy unleashed a potent offensive attack, cruising to a decisive 7-3 victory over South Sask Academy in a penalty-filled contest. The Warriors set the tone early, with Boone Depew opening the scoring just over five minutes into the first period, assisted by Carter Menzies and Daylen Deschamps. Stratton Glencross doubled the lead before the period was out, with Henry Warsylewicz picking up the helper. The Warriors' momentum continued in the second, as Carter Menzies scored to make it 3-0. South Sask Academy finally broke through with a goal from Jack Butler, and Liam Faris followed up with another to cut the deficit to one. However, the Warriors responded immediately, as Jack Watson netted the eventual game-winner just over a minute later, assisted by Austin Mullen, to restore a two-goal cushion heading into the final frame.
The third period saw the Warriors capitalize on a parade of South Sask penalties to put the game out of reach. Kade Parker and Daylen Deschamps each scored power-play goals in quick succession, with Menzies adding another assist, to extend the lead to 6-2. South Sask's Louie Clarke managed a shorthanded marker to briefly interrupt the onslaught, but Carter Menzies capped off a stellar individual performance with his second goal of the game to seal the 7-3 final. The game was marred by a staggering 14 penalties, with South Sask's Ty Forrester finding himself in the box four separate times. While specific goalie stats were not tracked, the Warriors' defense and netminding held firm when it mattered, weathering the South Sask push in the second period before their power play took over to secure a convincing win.
