Broncos cruise past Hurricanes with dominant third period
SWIFT CURRENT – Tuesday night (Oct. 10) gave us a pretty good idea of why the Swift Current Broncos stand atop the WHL standings, and it wasn’t a pleasant lesson for the Lethbridge Hurricanes to learn.
The Broncos entered the matchup with a 6-0 record to start the season, and after 60 minutes of play, extended their impressive streak to seven straight.
It really came down to the final 20 minutes though.
Tyler Steenbergen opened the scoring for the Broncos with five minutes left in the first period – his first of two in the game, totaling a remarkable 15 goals in seven games, which easily gives him the league lead – before the Hurricanes’ Giorgio Estephan equalized things with his third of the campaign, scoring on the power play.
