History
Despite finishing in fourth in their division and seventh overall in the league, the La Ronge Ice Wolves defeated the Humboldt Broncos, Flin Flon Bombers, Battlefords North Stars, Yorkton Terriers, all league champions in previous years, to clinch their first SJHL Credit Union Cup. With the win, the Ice Wolves advanced to the Anavet Cup, but had their ticket stamped to the 2010 Royal Bank Cup because their opponent, the Dauphin Kings of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League, hosted the National Championship. The Ice Wolves fell in five games to the Kings as Dauphin won its way into the National Tournament. The teams met again in the Semi-Finals of the RBC Cup with the Kings defeating the Wolves again.
The Ice Wolves weren't the underdogs in the 2011 SJHL Playoffs coming in as the top team in the league with 86 points and their first regular season points title in team history. The Ice Wolves featured the top three scorers from the regular season in Travis Eggum (106), Marc-Andre Carré (106) and Doug Lindensmith (98). After receiving a bye past the first round La Ronge beat the Flin Flon Bombers in five games, the Melfort Mustangs in five games and won their second consecutive SJHL Championship in seven games over the Yorkton Terriers. It was the first time the Ice Wolves won the championship on home ice before a listed attendance of 1339. Ice Wolves Goaltender Adam Bartko and defenceman Dayton Fossum were named Co-Playoff MVP's. The Ice Wolves came up short in their bid for their first Anavet Cup win, falling in seven games to the Portage Terriers.
