YORKTON - Coming off a lopsided 8-2 loss in the Battlefords Tuesday, the Yorkton Terriers were looking for a better result Wednesday in Kindersley.
And the Terriers did keep things closer.
In the first period Cohner Saleski put Yorkton on the board at 10:31, a goal sandwiched between a pair of Kipper efforts.
Nathan DeGraves had given Kindersley a lead at 5:46, with Alex Mack scoring at 11:17 for a 2-1 Klipper lead after 20-minutes.
The second period was one where the teams traded singles.
Terrier Dylan Ruptash scored 46 seconds in to tie the score 2-2.
But the Klippers edged ahead again on a goal by Logan Linklater.
The Terriers then found their offence clicking in the third period, with three goals in 1:27.
It started with a goal by Karsten Kruska scoring at 3:50.
At 4:06 Maddux Nollski scored to give Yorkton a 4-3 lead.
At 5:17 Greg Nelson added the Terriers fifth goal of the night.
The Klippers made it interesting with a powerplay goal at 19:44 but that would be it as Yorkton got to head home with a 5-4 win.
Caleb Allen was in net for Yorkton facing 41-shots in the win, while Cody Jaman faced 31 in guarding the twine for the home side loss.
The Terriers are back on the road Saturday, heading south to face the SJHL Viterra Division-leading Estevan Bruins.
