Coming off a subpar effort against the Fighting Saints, Buffalo returned home last Saturday to face a Champlin Park team that came in 2-5 overall.

            The Rebels got an early power-play goal from senior forward Luke Dalman to take a 1-0 first-period lead. Senior Wilson Anderle tied the score 1-1, but Dalman scored his second and third goals of the contest later in the second period, and Champlin Park cruised to a 4-2 road victory.

            Playing in his third game, senior Casey Anderson continued his scoring spree with a third-period goal. He also assisted on Anderle’s goal. In three games, he has three goals and three assists.

            Ramsey assisted on Anderson’s power-play goal, but the Rebels were able to shutdown Buffalo’s top line of Ramsey, Goodmanson and senior Hunter Thompson.

            The Bison’s record is 6-2-1 overall. Next up is a road trip to Duluth’s Amsoil Arena when they take on Bemidji on Thursday, Dec. 26. Time is unavailable.
