The Broncos collected all four points in a critical weekend home and home series with the Yorkton Terriers who were trying to hunt Humboldt down for fifth place overall in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League standings.

The green and gold took care of business on Friday night with a 5-2 home ice win, that was followed by Saturday's 5-4 victory in overtime.

Connor Swystun converted on a breakaway just 51 seconds into the three-on-three overtime period ensuring the extra point for the club who moves seven up on both Yorkton and Melfort for fifth.

Just like Friday, the Broncos jumped out to a lead in the first, Matthieu Gomercic split a couple Terrier defenders before he backhanded his seventh of the season past Nathan Hargrave making it 1-0 at 6:26, Trent Heituma picked up the lone assist.

The narrow margin stood until late in the frame when the Broncos top line produced twice in 19 seconds, Chris Van Os-Shaw buried his SJHL leading 32nd of the season from Trevor Posch and Logan Schatz, Posch followed with his 17th from Van Os-Shaw and Schatz making it 3-0 late in the first.

The Terriers did get a big goal before the frame was out, Kaleb Bell jumped on loose puck in front of Garrett Mason making it 3-1 heading to the break.

Yorkton kept coming early in the middle stanza, Corwin Stevely executed a perfect two-on-one rush while short handed making it 3-2. The goal was the 10th SH marker the Broncos have allowed this year, that is the most in the SJHL.

Michael Korol would restore the two goal lead somehow jamming his ninth of the year past Hargrave during a scrum in the crease. Josh Roberts and Luke Kempf picked up helpers on the 4-2 tally.

Again the home team would respond, LJ Naccarato threw a seeing eye point shot past Mason at 14:40 of the period, the Broncos took a 4-3 lead into the second intermission.

Most of the third period involved the Broncos pushing the pace and just when it looked a regulation win was in store, Van Os-Shaw got his stick tied up in Cole Keenleyside's feet leading to a late tripping minor that the Terriers would cash in on. Lanigan product Shane Sherban buried a rebound on the man advantage tying the back and forth affair at 4-4 assuring his team at least a point.

The Terriers had two glorious chances to win the game in the opening 40 seconds of overtime but a faulty read and line change by Yorkton lead to Swystun having a clear cut break that he made no mistake on for the 20 year-old's fifth of the year from Tristan Elder.

"It was huge, Yorkton is right behind us in the standings," the Saskatoon product said after the game. "We wanted to get both wins this weekend, Friday night was good and Saturday we knew we didn't want to split the weekend because we knew we'd be in the same boat so this win was huge."

Garrett Mason stopped 33 shots for his 20th win in goal and second straight this weekend. 

Yorkton was 1/2 on the power-play, the Broncos were scoreless on their lone chance plus they gave up the goal.

Humboldt meets Kindersley Wednesday night. Swystun is hoping they can keep the momentum going and get some revenge on the Klippers who have beaten them four of five tries.

"We're getting our chemistry back, we're finding a way to put the puck in the net where we've been struggling for this last month or so. Hopefully we can keep it going through Kindersley, we've had a tough time with them but hopefully we can keep it going."

Face-off is 7:30, the pre-game show begins at 7:15.

Also Saturday night in the SJHL, the Battlefords routed Melville 6-1, Flin Flin dumped LaRonge 6-2 and Estevan outscored Melfort 5-4.
