Same Score as the Night Before – This Time the Canes Lose 6-1
LETHBRIDGE: It came down to the same score as Friday night – but, a reversal of fortune for the Lethbridge Hurricanes, as the Red Deer Rebels came out on top 6-1 on home ice.
The Rebels out-shot the Canes 29-26, in a penalty filled game that saw Red Deer rack up 38 minutes for 12 infractions, including a 10 minute misconduct for Colton Bobyk, who made three trips to the penalty box, while Lethbridge tallied 20 penalty minutes for seven infractions.
The Rebels had the only goal in the first frame, which saw the home team log more infractions (9) than shots on goal (8) for the period.
Red Deer owned the second period, as the team found the net five times in succession before the Canes got on the board with their lone goal, thanks to Tyler Wong, assisted by Brayden Burke and Giorgio Estephan.
