A pair of former Swift Current Legionnaires teamed up to help the Yorkton Terriers blank the Melville Millionaires 3-0 Tuesday night. Jordan Barry and Matt D'Orazio made 15 saves each as the Terriers were out-shot 30-28 by the Mils.
After a scoreless first period, Evan Neibrandt broke the goose egg in period two on the powerplay, on a goal set up by Kevin Stringfellow and Greg Coburn. Before the middle frame was out, Logan Dew took a rebound off the end boards and buried it. Kirk Byczynski drew the lone assist. Just one goal in the final period, and it was a pretty backhander by Jordan Menke with the man advantage. Setting it up were Clarke Byczynski and Rylan McDonnell.

Yorkton's Pre-Season record improves to 2-and-0. Both clubs are back in action Wednesday night. The Terriers travel to Estevan, while Melville's home to Dauphin.
Jordan Barry: "I felt really strong, I think I got better throughout camp, I was really looking forward to getting into this game, and I was happy with the way it went."
Mils' Coach Jamie Fiesel: "One of the things we've talked about is finding ways to score goals, and we had 30 shots and couldn't score a goal. It starts with the powerplay, and it's early in the year, we haven't had a lot of time to practice, but we sure didn't execute well on the powerplay. I thought our veterans at times tried to do too much themselves rather than using each other. But the effort was there tonight, Yorkton was just better at putting the puck in the net.
