Mils Win... Terriers/Wolves Fall in SO's

Another 4-1 win for the Melville Millionaires over the Weyburn Red Wings.

The Mils beat the Wings now 4-straight times this season, and 3 of their wins have been 4-1 scores, the other a much closer 2-1 margin on Tuesday.

The newly formed line of Daniel Hope, Kale Dolinski and Matt Kinnunen had another strong game, combining for 8 points.

Dolinski and Kinnunen each had a goal and two assists, while Hope continued his recent hot streak with a goal and a helper. Logan Herauf also found the net for Melville.

Lots of shots in last night's (WED) game. Travis Bosch faced 36 and stopped 35. Weyburn's A.J. Whiffen faced 42. Bosch has played all four meetings against the Red Wings this season, winning them all, while keeping them to just asingle goal in all four games.

The Mils have today (THU) off, before taking on the Yorkton Terriers in a home and home Friday (in YOR), and Saturday(in MVL).

---------------------

The Yorkton Terriers got a point, but hoped for more after building a 2-0 lead on the Estevan Bruins. The Bruins wound up winning 5-4 in a shootout that lasted 5 rounds.

Cody Zubko led the Terriers with 2 goals and an assist... Clarke Breitkreuz and Evan Neibrandt had the other goals while Kevin Stringfellow set up a pair.

Joel Danyluk played goal for Yorkton and made 34 saves on 38 shots.

The Wayway Wolverines and OCN Blizzard are now tied for 3rd in the MJHL's Sherwood Division standings after the Blizzard got by the Wolverines 2-1 in a shootout last night.

OCN scored first when Kent Sauter found the net with 32 seconds left in the first period.

Paul Marcoux answered in the second to tie it at one... and after a scoreless third period and overtime... it went to a shootout.

Mitch Olson scored on OCN's first shot, and Blizzard goalie David Aime stopped Marcoux, Logan Dew and Jason Bowles to get the Blizz the extra point.

Aime stopped 23 of 24 shots in regulation and overtime, while Wayway's Jayme Janzen made 24 saves on 25 shots.

The two teams are now deadlocked in third, each with 34 points.
