Swan River's Will Munro has been waiting for this moment.
It's the moment that the Parkland Bantam Rangers play their home opener.
And, it's just about here. The Rangers open up their home schedule tomorrow afternoon at Credit Union Place.
Leading up to tomorrow's game, it's been a busy start to the season for the squad. They played six pre-season games and went 4-2. That was followed by their regular season opener last weekend against the Winnipeg Sharks when they lost a close 5-4 battle.
The team then rebounded in their next game to beat Interlake, 5-4. The weekend wrapped up with a 7-1 loss against Brandon.
"I think it's been a great few games for sure," said Munro. "Our team is playing pretty good. We've had a tough couple of games, but we feel good with how we're playing."
This season is a first for Munro. The first year he'll play AAA hockey as he joins the regions only team.
"It's been an amazing experience so far," said Munro. "It's an honour to get the chance to play for this team. I've played a lot of hockey in my life, but this level is way above any of it. It's awesome."
Although it's his first season playing AAA hockey, Munro has found a way to make it work. He's already mixed in a couple goals and assists through the pre-season and regular season.
"I mean I've played with a lot of my teammates in the past," said Munro. "Some are from Swan River, so our chemistry is great. And the guys from out of Swan River are so easy and fun to play with. We also have a great coaching staff that really pushes us to succeed."
Tomorrow's game is a 1:00 start at Credit Union Place. Will wants you to come out.
"It's going to be such a fun game," he added. "I can't wait for puck drop. I'm hoping a bunch of people come out and support us. It should be a great one."
Tomorrow's opponent is the Pembina Valley Hawks.
