YORKTON - After an old-fashioned shoot-out in Yorkton where Weyburn topped the host Terriers 7-5, the teams met again Saturday on Red Wing ice.
In this showdown the goaltenders took control.
The duo of Yorkton’s Caleb Allen and Weyburn’s Eric Kahl combined to stop all but one shot in the first period.
The lone goal belonged to Ryley Morgan, a powerplay marker with only 12 seconds left in the period to give the home side a 1-0 lead.
The netminders stayed stingy in the middle frame with again only one goal allowed.
Again it was a powerplay effort late – at 18:04 – this one by Cade Kennedy of the Terriers to tie the game 1-1.
In the third the Wings finally broke away as Braigh LeGrandeur scored at the 9-minute marker and Jackson Hassman added a powerplay effort at 19:13 for a 3-1 Wings win.
Allen faced 35 shots in the loss, with Kahl facing the same number for the win.
The Terriers head to Battlefords Tuesday to face the North Stars, and then on to Kindersley to play the Klippers Wednesday.
