The Moose Jaw Warriors are gearing up for what could be an exciting season, as they open the 2022-23 Western Hockey League season on Friday. Head coach Mark O'Leary explains how the team is preparing for Friday night.

"I think it's getting right back to our identity," says O'Leary. "We know how Regina plays, they have guys that are willing to work and compete. Obviously, they have Connor [Bedard] and his skill level, anytime he's in the game they have a chance to score goals and win the game. It's going to continue to be about us and us getting to our identity as early as we can come Friday night and bank on our skill that we'll be there in the end if we can win our fair share of races and battles."

Moose Jaw will travel to Regina to take on the Pats in a home-and-home series, with the Warriors hosting their home opener on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. The team will be hosting a pre-game party at 5:30 p.m. with live music, deals on drinks, food, and much more. 

The Moose Jaw Winmar AAA Warriors will also be getting their regular season underway this weekend. They will host the Battleford Stars for a pair of games starting on Friday night at 7:00 p.m. and then on Saturday at 12:00 p.m at the Moose Jaw Events Centre. 

The U15 AA Warriors will continue their exhibition play on Wednesday night as they are hosting the Regina Monarchs at 8:15 p.m. at the Kinsmen Sportsplex.  

Moose Jaw high school football continues on Friday night under the lights. The Vanier Vikings look to pick up their first win of the season as they battle the 2-1 Central Cyclones at Elks Field with a 7:00 p.m. kickoff.
