Any team in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League that gives up 40+ shots on goal a game cannot realistically expect to win on a consistent basis. So far this season, the Neepawa Natives have surrendered an average of 46 shots per game. On Wednesday, Dec. 2, they gave up 60. From that information, I’m sure you have already surmised exactly what the end result was for Neepawa, as the visiting Virden Oil Capitals were able to cruise to a 6-3 win.

December has arrived and even though it doesn’t appear to be winter when we look out the windows, we’re quickly reminded everywhere we go that Christmas celebrations are well underway. We have a good selection of seasonal children’s books, adult fiction, recipe and craft books as well as a few seasonal favourite DVDs for lending. They’ll be available until early January before we pack them away again for next year.
