The SMAAAHL hockey season did not begin how the Yorkton Secon Maulers would have hoped. The home opener saw the team meet the Tisdale Trojans at the Farrell Agencies Arena. The Tisdale squad was the dominant one.
The game opened with a Tisdale goal happening almost immediately from Mackenzie Carson, assisted by Zac Robins.
Carson opened the second period the same way, putting the second notch on the board for Tisdale, assisted by Kalen Ukrainetz and Trenton Curtis. Ukrainetz followed that with a goal of his own, assisted by Curtis and Mario Fortier. This was followed by the third goal of the second, scored by Cole Tanchuk and assisted by Keagon Little.
Carson got a hat trick by getting the first goal of the third period, a short-handed goal assisted by Robins. The final goal of the game came from Little, assisted by Ethan Lang and Noah Wills.
Once the dust settled the score was 6-0 for the visiting Trojans.
Next action for the Maulers will be in Warman for the Warman Showcase, where the Maulers will meet the Saskatoon Contacts and the Notre Dame Hounds. Next home game will be Wed. Oct. 2, when the Maulers will host the Regina Pat Canadians.
