The Grande Prairie Storm continues their Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL) season.

Their record is now at 2-3-and-1 for the season so far, with the team splitting their most recent game at Revolution Arena over the weekend.

The Storm first fell 5-4 in overtime to the Drayton Valley Thunder on Saturday. But then, the next afternoon, revenge really tasted sweet, with the Storm just walking all over the Thunder by a score of 8-1.

Their current record, at 0.417, puts GP in fifth-place overall in the AJHL’s North Division standings.

Currently atop of those standings is the Whitecourt Wolverines, with a record of 4-1-and-1, good for 0.750.

Edouard Michaud scored four goals in both of those games, with Zachery Okabe scoring one goal and three assists, and Justin Bernier nabbing five assists. Over all six regular season games played so far this season, each have scored a total of 11 points.

The Storm now remains idle for the next few days, when they take a road trip over to Camrose for the AJHL showcase at the Max McLean Arena. First, they take on the Brooks Bandits at 4:30 on Friday, and then at 1 PM the next day, they’ll face off against the Calgary Mustangs.

Regular play resumes on Wednesday, October 4, when the Storm play another home game against Drayton Valley.
