The shorthanded Norman Wild had a tough weekend at the Pembina Valley Hawks showcase tournament in Morden Thanksgiving weekend, losing all four games with a roster that started out with just 11 skaters before an injury in the first game reduced them to 10 for the next three contests.

Megan Quesnel had the lone goal for the Wild in their Oct. 7 contest against the Regina Rebels, who skated to a 6-1 victory on the strength of 60 shots against Norman netminder Marley Quesnel, who posted a .900 save percentage in the game.

The Wild’s first game on Saturday was a 4-0 shutout at the hands of the PA Bears. Goaltender Shayna Moore made 33 saves.

Norman was on the ice again a few hours later against the St. Mary’s Prep Flames, who emerged as 6-1 winners, with Megan Quesnel getting the Wild’s only goal again and Marley Quesnel making 35 saves.

The final game for the Wild on Oct. 9 was a 4-1 loss to the Swift Current Wildcats. Kali Cummings was Norman’s goalscorer and Moore made 33 saves.

The Wild return to regular season Manitoba Female Midget Hockey League action in Flin Flon Oct. 15 and The Pas Oct. 16 when they take on the Westman Wildcats.
