Hurricanes remain hot on home ice after 2-0 victory over the Regina Pats
LETHBRIDGE – In their first meeting since the 2017 WHL Eastern Conference Finals, the Lethbridge Hurricanes earned some revenge with a 2-0 victory over the Regina Pats on Wednesday night.
The teams were scoreless after the first period, and with 9:48 gone in the second frame forward Josh Tarzwell dropped the gloves for a fight with Regina forward Tanner Sidaway with each landing a few bombs before Sidaway managed to get Tarzwell to the ice where the linesman stepped in.
The fight seemed to spark the Hurricanes who turned up the heat in the second, ultimately firing home the ice breaker at 16:34 off the stick of Dylan Cozens. The goal was Cozens 7th of the season, and it was assisted by Zane Franklin and Jordy Bellerive.
After two periods the Hurricanes had themselves a 1-0 lead. Then in the 3rd period off a nice setup from Bellerive again, Ryan Vandervlis fired home his second goal of the season to give the Hurricanes a 2-0 lead and that would stand up as the final.
