Hurricanes edge Vancouver Giants 4-3
LETHBRIDGE — The Hurricanes upped their record to 20-10-4-4 on the season on Friday (Jan 4) night at the Enmax, in a 4-3 defeat of the visiting Vancouver Giants.
The first period provided some good chances for the Giants but, the only real action came from alternating minor penalties for both teams. The first 20-minutes ended with no score, in spite of Vancouver leading shots-on-goal 10-7.
The teams returned to the ice ready to play after intermission. In the first minute, Jake Elmer charted his 17th of the season, with the assist from Dylan Cozens and Taylor Ross.
Just three minutes later, while Jake Leschyshyn got tangled in action behind the net, Nick Henry pushed the puck in front of Jordy Bellerive who tucked into between he pipes and the Canes were up 2-0.
