The Flin Flon Bombers wrapped up pre-season play on Friday night dropping a 4-3 decision in a shootout to the Northern Manitoba Blizzard.
Earlier in pre-season action the Bombers defeated the La Ronge Ice Wolves 8-5 and 7-3 before defeating the Melfort Mustangs 2-1. The Bombers lost earlier this week to the Blizzard 3-2 in a shootout as well.
Heading into opening week the Bombers currently have 18 forwards, 9 defencemen and 2 goaltenders and will look to trim the roster by Friday night’s home opener against the Nipawin Hawks. The team returns 7 forwards, 4 defencemen and a goaltender from last season’s 44-9-2-1 roster.
