Five point night for Bellerive, hat trick for Ross in Hurricanes 7-4 hammering of Hitmen
LETHBRIDGE, AB – Make it six straight victories for the Lethbridge Hurricanes, after they thumped the Calgary Hitmen 7-4 in their final regular season game at the ENMAX Centre on Saturday, Mar. 9.
It was a choppy start, for both teams, as there were a number of whistles stunting the pace of play early on.
Just over a minute past the midway point of the period, it would be the Hitmen opening the scoring. Off a turnover in the Hurricanes end, Sean Tschigerl tipped the puck up and over Lethbridge goaltender Carl Tetachuk to make it 1-0.
The Hurricanes would respond at 14:23, thanks to captain Jordy Bellerive sliding a perfect pass across to Taylor Ross who made no mistake putting it past Hitmen goaltender Carl Stankowski to tie the score up 1-1.
