The host Red Wings are one of six teams taking part in the six-day event.
“(The Humboldt Broncos bus tragedy) hits home for a lot of hockey players across Saskatchewan. (The Red Wings) have several guys that are from the Humboldt community and one of them was a former Humboldt Bronco (defenceman David Stumborg), “Our hearts are breaking at this time, but we do hope that in some small fashion that we can help to start the province heal through our little national hockey tournament in Rosetown, Saskatchewan this week.”
