What was once a comfortable lead atop the Tigers Hills Hockey League’s Eastern Division has turned into a paper thin margin for error for the Neepawa Farmers. Of course, the team’s recent losing streak hasn’t helped matters. Last weekend, the Farmers dropped a pair of games, extending their losing skid to four straight. As of Tuesday, Dec. 22, Neepawa was only one point ahead of the Carberry Plainsmen in the standings and three points better than Minnedosa.
