Swan Valley Stampeders' 20-year-old D Cody Straker, who had 2 assists in Friday's 4-3 win in Game 1 in Portage (and was named first star on our broadcast), received a match penalty at the end of the game, and has been assessed a 2 game suspension.Straker will miss tonight's Game 2, and Tuesday's Game 3, and will be eligible to play again Thursday when the Stampeders host Game 4.
It's definitley a loss for the Stamps' powerplay, which struck twice in Game 1 on Straker point shots getting deflected, but either Evan Morden or Brendan Mitchell are capable of checking into the lineup and logging significant minutes.
