The team has dealt 18-year-old forward Nathan Hillis to the Selkirk Steelers in exchange for 19-year-old goaltender Evan Robert and the MJHL list rights for 17-year-old defensemen Troy Earl. In a separate deal, Neepawa also acquired 18-year-old forward Braeden Binda from the Winkler Flyers in exchange for future considerations.

On Thursday, Oct. 20, hopeful entrepreneurs from the Neepawa and Minnedosa areas gathered at the ArtsForward building for the second annual ‘What’s The Big Idea?’ event.
The event is a chance for entrepreneurs to build connections with other individuals and organizations, as well as pitch their ideas to the public and a panel of judges for their chance to win cash awards.
This year, seven entrepreneurs stepped up to pitch their ideas, with four of them taking home prizes.
