Hurricanes road trip opens up with 6-4 loss to Blades
SASKATOON, SK – The first game of a four-game road trip for the Lethbridge Hurricanes started on the wrong foot on Tuesday, Feb. 26, as they dropped a 6-4 decision to the Saskatoon Blades.
The Hurricanes started the game on time, outshooting the Blades early in the period and that start would pay off a little past the two-minute mark.
On the powerplay, Jake Leschyshyn set up Nick Henry who beat Saskatoon starting goaltender Nolan Maier to give Lethbridge a 1-0 lead.
Saskatoon didn’t take long answering, however, when they evened the score 1-1 at 3:31 thanks to a Kyle Crnkovic goal.
