Jerry Bellemarre sent the Bisons surging ahead in the first six minutes of play when he batted in a rebound on Freddie Hunt's shot. Vie Lynn got up off the ice after a particularly hard check from Doug McCaig to score the second Buffalo counter at 7:59. It looked as though Doug must have rattled the Bison player's teeth, but he shook it off and whipped a neat pass from Murdo MacKay cleanly past, Goalie Tommy Wilson from the left side of the cage.

Although it is too early to reac definite decisions about the 1946 Tribesters’ regular season roster, it's evident to all on hand here that the catching department meas ures up with any in the America association.
