LETHBRIDGE – The Lethbridge Hurricanes fourth straight win might just be their most impressive of the year, coming back from down 3-1 to take down the Portland Winterhawks 4-3 in a shootout.
The Winterhawks flexed their muscles at times in the game, outshooting the Hurricanes 47-24 overall, but Lethbridge kept battling back on route to snapping Portland’s 10 game winning streak.
