Colton Graf was the only regular out of the Dauphin Kings' lineup, after flu symptoms went through most of their roster just 48 hours sooner, and the Kings seemed to be their old selves, out-shooting the La Ronge Ice Wolves 55-23 in a 4-1 win in Game 3 of the Anavet Cup.
Yorkton product Joel Danyluk made 51/54 saves for La Ronge, with the fourth and final goal into an empty net in the last minute of play. Travis Cech, Ryan Dreger, Bryce Lamb and Troy Hunter scored for Dauphin, while Dan Conacher responded for La Ronge, who was without their Captain, and SJHL Player of the Year Dustin Stevenson, although they did welcome back fellow blueliners Mike Alexander and Colton MacPherson for the first time in the series.
Dauphin leads the series 2-1, with Game 4 Wednesday and Game 5 Friday in Dauphin. The Kings have a chance to wrap up the series at home and not have to make the journey to La Ronge again, but at least one Ice Wolves' win would send the series back up north for the weekend.

The food poisoning did not work to the Ice Wolves advantage. Maybe this burr under Dauphin's saddle will drive them to end the series in two more games
or the food poisoning wasn't as bad as marlin murray ranted about...
