The Dauphin Clippers journey to a championship in Las Vegas ended in heartbreak on Monday.

On Louis Riel Day in Manitoba, the Clippers came up short against the Bow Valley Flames of Calgary, 3-2, in a shootout in a semi-final. It was a very impressive performance for Dauphin as the Flames won all four of their round-robin games, scoring 17 goals and giving up just four in the process. Jesse Hockridge and Ronin Mouck scored for Dauphin in the defeat as they finished in the top 4 as no bronze medal match was played.

The Swan Valley Stampeders made it a 1-1 game after 20 minutes of play.

From that point on, it was all Dauphin Kings on Saturday night as they scored five straight goals to earn their 29th win of the season as they downed their Parkland rival in convincing fashion with a 6-1 win at the Centennial Arena.

It was Dauphin's second straight win after they beat Steinbach on Friday night. Cole Sheffield earned his 24th win of the season as he finished the night with 27 saves and Dauphin went 1-for-5 on the power play and 4-for-5 on the penalty kill.

Jordan Bax had Dauphin's lone goal in the first period while Ethan Lintner scored on the power play for the Stampeders and that was Swan Valley's lone goal of the game.

Dauphin came out in the 2nd and fired 22 shots and found the back of the net four times. Gabriel Bugeaud, Trey Gnetz, and Joshua Schmidt all scored a single for the Kings.

It has been a mixed bag last seven days for the Dauphin Kings, but for the second time in less than a month, they have downed one of the top teams in the country.

Cayden Glover scored the game winner as he tipped in a pass from Ashton Paul with just more than ine minutes left in the game. Alex Senf also scored in the game while Paul scored his third as a King in the victory.

When you bring up hockey and the name Legaarden, many people think of goals scored and many other goals that were set up.

Cade Legaarden started his journey of next level hockey with the Parkland U15 Rangers in the 2020-21 season. It was one that was cut very short because of the pandemic; however, Cade was off to a great start with one goal and one assist in five games. Legaarden then returned to the team the following season and after posting 25 points in 30 regular season games, the star from Grandview took his game to the next level in the playoffs. Across five games, Cade scored four times while adding four assists to average well more than a point per game.

Cade then made the jump up to the U18 level where he scored four goals and had seven points in 43 games. Then again, Cade took the next step just as he did the year prior with the U15 team.

Legaarden is now in his fourth season with the Rangers program and it has been his best to date as the 2023-24 season slowly comes to a close for the club. While Parkland has just 13 wins this year and are very unlikely to qualify for the playoffs, Cade believes being a Ranger is a true honour.

"It means a lot to be the Parkland Ranger, to get the chance to live at home and play at this high level in front of our amazing fans, it's always a great feeling," said Legaarden. "The season for sure hasn't gone the way we would have hoped, but when we put in a full 60 minutes, I believe we can compete with anyone and we have shown that on several occasions."

With 15 goals and 15 assists in 39 games this year, Cade finds himself second in team scoring, only behind Hayden Seib. Legaarden has proved throughout the season that he can be a game changer and he's looking forward to continuing to grow as he looks to play at the next level after his days as a Ranger are done.

"It's been a confidence thing this year, I'm feeling confident on the ice and confident in my abilities," offered Legaarden. "I also have to give a lot of the credit to my teammates and coaches, without them, I wouldn't be able to do what I am doing out on the ice."

Legaarden will be back on the ice this weekend when Parkland plays on home ice Saturday and Sunday against the Winnipeg Bruins. Parkland has just six games left in the regular season and Cade is looking forward to making the most of them.

"The mindset is just leaving everything out on the ice, we need to play a full 60 minutes each night," said Legaarden. "We're still pushing and our goal is to win as many games as we can the rest of the way. We want to show the league that we are for real."

While Cade focuses on his play with Parkland and becoming the best player that he can, he is also keeping track of the Winkler Flyers as that's where his brother Jayce is playing. Jayce is tied for fith in Flyers scoring with 33 points and he is a former Ranger all-star that scored 46 goals in the 2021-22 season.

"He has worked hard for everything he has got," said Legaarden. "It's good for him, I'm proud of him and I hope he can keep it going."

Just like his brother, Cade's goal is to play at the next level and he knows he will have to continue pushing.

"I have to get stronger and faster," ended Legaarden. "My work ethic has to always stay as high as possible and I can never stop, it's all about giving it all I have every single second on and off the ice."

A season doesn't go by without the Dauphin Clippers being contenders to win a championship in the Westman High School Hockey League.

Being one of the top programs on a year-by-year basis in the league, the Clippers are once again championship contenders this year after a great start to the season, a regular season that will see the team play just one more league game.

Sitting in a tie for first place in the league, Dauphin is 21-6-2 on the campaign. That currently has them tied with the Vincent Massey Vikings for the top spot. While Dauphin is in a tie for first, Vincent Massey along with a few teams below them all have games in hand. 

Jason Alf is proud of how the team has come together this year.

"I have been very happy with how things have gone this year, you never know what to expect at the start of the season," said Alf. "I am not sure if we thought we would be in this position at this time of the year, but the guys have been playing very well."

Dauphin's final league game comes on home ice when the Clippers welcome Crocus Plains to town on February 23. In a game that Dauphin will enter as the favourite, the Clippers can finish the regular season with a maximum of 46 points.

Vincent Massey, with three regular-season games left, can finish with 50 points while Neepawa can finish the season with 53 points if they win out. The Huskies can finish with 48 and those are the three teams that can catch or surpass Dauphin in the standings. 

Dauphin is in an excellent spot to finish in the top four in the standings heading into the playoffs and as Alf says, it's been a complete team effort.

"We definitely would not be anywhere close to where we are without the play of Owen Chubka, he has been excellent," offered Alf. "Our defensive play has been fairly strong and we're getting some timely goals from every line. We don't have anyone near the top 10, but we're scoring by committee and getting the goals that we need when we need them."

Chubka has 12 wins this season with a 3.10 goals-against average to go along with a .903 save percentage. Tyron Sweetman leads the way offensively for Dauphin with 20 goals and 24 assists.

As Dauphin now prepares for their regular season finale next Friday, they will do so by playing against some American teams in Las Vegas. The Clippers will make their way to Las Vegas Presidents Day Tournament which opens this weekend. The Clippers will play four games and the finals are set for Monday afternoon.

"The guys are looking forward to getting on the road and doing something different," said Alf. "It's a good opportunity for the guys to bond and really spend a ton of time together, it's a good chance to get away and not think about league play for a bit."

When it comes to expectations, Dauphin has faired very well in the past when they went down south for tournaments.

"We look at it as a chance to get some players in positions that they maybe haven't been in before," ended Alf. "When it comes down to it, we're always trying to win. We just want to play some good hockey and we'll see how it goes."
