Blades Defeat Hitmen Schenn's Debut!!!!

Tonight was Brayden Schenn's Blades debut and there was all kinds of focus on that. The Blades played a weak 1st period allowing the Hitmen to score 1st.

The Blades controlled the game from that point on. The Hitmen played well in the 1st period.

Adding Brayden Schenn now adds depth and two good lines.

I think that once Brayden plays a few more games we may see the point totals for the 1st line go up but if not that is ok too. It never hurts to have a deep team and not have the pressure focused on one player or line.

The final score was 5-1 for the Blades.

It is such a pleasure to watch Schenn play. Saskatoon gets what Brandon had for 3 years. 1 game and I am already enjoying it.

That being said I am having Schenn's name put on the back of my jersey. I have only seen 1 other person do it so far.

Saskatoon will travel to Calgary and play the Hitmen on Tuesday and then play in Edmonton against the Oil Kings on Wednesday.
