For the second straight game the Bruins had a slow start to their game, with a lackluster effort in the first 40 minutes, before coming back with a spirited effort in the third period. The Bruins won 4-3 against Melville on Wednesday, but tonight the Red Wings held on to a 5-4 win.
Weyburn jumped ahead 1-0 early in the first period, and then they began to play their trapping style of defence as they tried to clog up the neutral zone has much as possible. It worked to the Red Wings advantage since the Bruins were kept in check. It looked like the Bruins would only be down after the first period, but with one second left Jesse Ross tossed a puck on net and fooled Derek Tendler to make it 2-0 after the first period.
The second period was like the first as the Red Wings scored two goals and lead 4-0 after 2. Keith Cassidy decided to change up his top two lines heading into the third, as Austin Daae moved up to play with Dylan Smith and Cole Olson, while Calder Neufeld played on the Derek Whitehill and Josh Jelinski line. The move paid off as Daae, Olson and Smith combined for 12 points on 4 goals. The Daae-Smith-Olson line were able to move the puck deep inside of the Wing's end and score all 4 goals within 5 feet of Kilgore.
Only three penalties, and two of them came from a fight, I'm expecting a more physical game tomorrow.
Rematch at Spectra Place is 7:30
