THE BLIZZARD DREW 1ST BLOOD IN THE 1ST PERIOD WITH A GOAL BY JAMES MAXWELL AT 14:00 INTO THE 1ST PERIOD. THEN WITH 1 MINUTE TO PLAY IN THE 1ST. THE BLIZZARD WOULD ADD ANOTHER GOAL FROM NEWCOMER RYAN BUTLER. THE KID FROM MAPLE RIDGE , BC JOINED THE TEAM LAST WEEK,. ACQUIRED FROM THE MELLVILLE MILLIONAIRES OF THE SJHL.
THEN THE BLIZZARD WOULD BE PENALIZED FOR HOLDING ENTERING THE SECOND PERIOD. AND THE NATIVES WOULD CAPITALIZE ON THEIR CHANCE. RYLAN GUNDARSON WOULD AD THE 1S GOAL FOR THE NATIVES IN THE GAME ON THE POWER PLAY.
RYAN BUTLER WOULD ANSWER AGAIN WITH AN EVEN STRENGTH GOAL . AT 14:29 IN THE SECOND. TO MAKE THE SCORE 3-1.

THAT’S WHAT THE SCORE WOULD REMAIN. AS THE BLIZZARD WOULD GET THEIR 3RD WIN OF THE SEASON. TO BRING THEIR RECORD TO 3-4 ON THE SEASON.
