An inability to stay out of the penalty box, combined with an anemic effort on offence has proven to be a huge factor in the Neepawa Native’s recent losing streak. Heading into their next home game on Wednesday, Oct. 7, the MJHL club has lost four straight, by a combined goal differential of 24-to-3. As well, one-third of the goals that were surrendered by the Natives were given up while attempting to kill off penalties.

If there is any positives that came out of the Neepawa Natives 8-0 loss to the Portage Terriers on Wednesday, Sept. 30, it’s that it happened early enough in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League season that they can hopefully put it behind them.
