The Neepawa Natives closed out a gruelling section of their regular season schedule on Sunday, Oct. 9, with a solid 2-0 victory over the Waywayseecappo Wolverines. The game was Neepawa’s fourth in five day and came less than 24 hours after a trip to Steinbach to take on the unbeaten Pistons. Sunday night's tilt was also the first of those four contests to be played at home, after the team accumulated a combined 1102 kilometres on the bus this week (282 km to & from Dauphin, 302 km to & from Virden and 518 km to & from Steinbach)

The Neepawa Natives outshot, outskated and generally outplayed the Virden Oil Capitals at Tundra Oil & Gas Place on Thursday, Oct.6. Despite that exceptional effort, Neepawa still found itself on the wrong end of a 1-0 result. Nobody ever said life was fair, neither is hockey.
