Sep 15, 2018 | 3:15 PM

The Olds Grizzly kicked off their AJHL season Friday night in front of over 800 fans at the Olds Sportsplex.

Unfortunately, it was a losing effort as the Grizzlys were downed 5-1 by the Calgary Mustangs.

Calgary jumped out to an early 2-0 lead on first period powerplay goals.

Olds drew within one in the second with a powerplay marker of their own, but the Mustangs scored twice in just over a minute to pull away.
