WEEK PREVIEW: Broncos Prepare for Trio of Division Matchups
After suffering their first home loss of the season on Saturday, the Swift Current Broncos look to bounce back in a busy week featuring three East Division matchups. With key divisional points on the line, this week offers a big opportunity for the Broncos to climb the standings.
Tuesday, October 7, 7:00 PM vs. Moose Jaw Warriors @ Temple Gardens Centre
The week kicks off on the road against the Moose Jaw Warriors (3-2-0-0), a team that handed the Broncos a tough 6-1 loss back on September 27. This is the second of eight meetings this season between the clubs.
Recent history hasn’t been kind to Swift Current in Moose Jaw: over the last five years, the Broncos are just 3-11-0-0 at Temple Gardens Centre. However, Moose Jaw is also coming off a loss, a 5-3 decision to Vancouver, so expect a high energy matchup from both sides looking to rebound.
Friday, October 10, 7:00 PM vs. Saskatoon Blades @ the InnovationPlex
The Broncos return home for their first game of the season against the Saskatoon Blades (4-2-0-0). The Blades are riding a two-game win streak and will face Vancouver on Tuesday before coming to Swift Current.
Last season, the Broncos narrowly edged the season series against Saskatoon (4-3-0-1) and have had slightly better results at home over the last five years, posting a 4-6 record at the InnovationPlex. With both teams having a decent start to their 2025-26 campaign, the Friday night matchup will serve as an early season measuring stick.
Sunday, October 12, 3:00 PM SK vs. Brandon Wheat Kings at Assiniboine Credit Union Place
The Broncos wrap up the week in Brandon to face a Wheat Kings squad that has yet to win a game this season (0-4-1-0). While Swift Current dropped both pre-season games against Brandon, the regular season offers a clean slate.
This will be the first of six meetings between the two clubs this season. Historically, the Broncos have performed well in Brandon, going 6-4-1-0 at Assiniboine Credit Union Place over the past five years.
With three critical games in five days, the Broncos face a pivotal stretch that could set the tone for the rest of the season. From seeking redemption in Moose Jaw to defending home ice against a tough Saskatoon squad, and capitalizing on a winless Brandon team, every point is up for grabs in the East Division race.
