Pats top Hurricanes 6-2 to tie Eastern Conference Championship
LETHBRIDGE – “We weren’t very good… I thought Regina was way more desperate, they were way more urgent. They played hard and we didn’t.”
Those words came from Lethbridge Hurricanes head coach Brent Kisio, following a 6-2 beat down at the hands of the Regina Pats Wednesday night (Apr. 26).
The Pats were clearly the better team as they evened-up the Eastern Conference Championship at two wins apiece, one night after it was the Hurricanes who controlled play for most of the contest.
In what’s become a bit of a recurring theme in these playoffs, Stuart Skinner was called upon early and often in the Hurricanes’ net, as Regina poured on the pressure.
