Hurricanes explode for 10 goals in 10-4 victory over Victoria to snap losing streak
LETHBRIDGE – The Lethbridge Hurricanes rode a blazing hot powerplay on Tuesday night (Nov. 21) on route to a 10-4 victory against the Victoria Royals that snapped their eight-game losing streak.
Things didn’t off great for the Canes, with defenceman Tate Olson taking a holding penalty in the first two minutes of the 1st period.
After that the Royals seized the momentum when Matthew Smith scored the game’s opening goal at 8:02 of the first period.
The lead wouldn’t last long, as Ryan Vandervlis answered just minutes later to tie the game at 1-1. Then at 15:41 of the 1st period Vandervlis struck again, this time on the powerplay to give the Hurricanes a 2-1 lead which they would take to the 2nd period.
