Broncos extend holiday greetings
The Swift Current Broncos had nine days off to celebrate the holidays with family and friends. They concluded their first-half schedule with a 5-2 win over the Saskatoon Blades last week and will be back on home ice on Saturday when the Regina Pats visit.
Before they took off for some well-deserved time off, the Broncos players shared what they want for Christmas and what their favourite Christmas treats are. A couple of players weren't even hoping for gifts for themselves, they instead were hoping for a teammate to get something. #3 Jordan Harris Gift: PlayStation 4 Favourite Treat: Chocolate Turtles
