Hartney Arena Tuesday, December 22nd 7:30pm - 9:30pm Whether you are still actively playing the game or not we hope you are able to join us. With many of the Alumni returning from their university/college teams for the holidays it is a good way to get old and new together to catch up on everyone's activities from the first half of the season or for the opportunity to reconnect with some of those old teammates/coaches you have not seen for years. We hope you are able to join us on December 22. We have tried to connect with all former Wildcats but please pass this on as we do not have all addresses for former wildcat players. If you could let us know if you will be attending and what you have been doing since graduating that would be appreciated. You can respond to me at atbell2000@yahoo.ca Hope to see you at the rink on December 22nd.

Dec 12, 2015, 7:58 pm The Westman Wildcats defeated Calgary Edge 4-1 this afternoon in Wilcox. The Wildcats fell behind 36 seconds into the game as a tough backhander beat the Wildcats tender. The Wildcats managed to withstand a flurry of activity over the next 10 minutes before they got their feet under them and started to push back.

Each team was assessed a minor penalty in the period. Westman outshot the Edge 10-9.

Westman faces Notre Dame Junior Hounds (who defeated the Central Plains Caps , 3-2 in OT) in the final at 3:15 PM tomorrow in Wilcox. Dec 11, 2015, 11:49 pm The Wildcats faced off against the Saskatoon Stars with the winner clinching 1st place in Pool C at the Mandi Schwartz Tournament at Notre Dame/Wilcox Saskatchewan. It was an incredibly fast and intense game from the opening face off. Unfortunately, some inconsistent refereeing did not allow the game to establish a consistent flow. It did, however, create plenty of exciting powerplay opportunities for both teams through the first two periods. Westman received 5 minor penalties in the 1st period and the Stars received 3. In the 2nd period, the Stars received 5 penalties to the Wildcats 1. Neither team could bury on on the odd man advantage though as both goaltenders were very solid throughout and the game entered the 3rd period scoreless. The 3rd period was a back and forth affair with both teams trading chances. With just over 4 minutes to play Ashton Bell picked off an errant pass and quickly set up Courtney Ganske in the low slot. Ganske, who was moved to forward at the beginning of the period due to an injury, out-waited the goaltender and buried a shot under the bar to take the lead 1-0. Jaedon Cooke would and an empty netter with 8 seconds remaining to seal the deal. Saskatoon took 2 minors in the period and the Wildcats took 1.
Final shots on net were 33-28 for the Wildcats.
Kaitie Slator picked up the shutout victory in net.
The Wildcats play in the semi-final on Saturday at 3:45 PM in Wilcox. Opponent to be determined.
