Seven games are on the schedule this weekend as play resumes in the Big Six Hockey League on Friday night following a two week Christmas break.

As the regular season schedule ramps up in January, there's still plenty to play for as teams continue to battle for positioning in the standings. On Friday night, the Carnduff Red Devils will travel to Oxbow to play the Huskies, while the Arcola/Kisbey Combines make their way to Midale to play the Mustangs. Four games will hit the ice on Saturday before one more on Sunday, which will feature the Yellow Grass Wheat Kings at the Wawota Flyers.
