Terriers lose 4-2 to North Stars

Set to face Red Wings in first of February matchups.

YORKTON – The Terriers hosted the Battlefords North Stars at Westland Arena on Jan. 27.

The Terriers' Greg Nelson opened up the scoring in the first at 5:44, assisted by Tyson Perkins and Cale Strasky.  Midway through the period, at 11:39, the North Stars' Emmet Wurst put one past the netminder followed by two successful power play efforts by Bradley Blake at 13:34 and Kian Bell at 16:02 giving the visitors a two-goal lead heading into the second.

The Terriers wasted no time scoring in the second with Pavel Mckenzie putting another on the board at 00:58, assisted by Cohner Saleski and Dylan Ruptash.  However, it would be the lone goal of the period.

It was a 3-2 game for the better part of the third period.  The Terriers pulled goalie Caleb Allen at 18:32 in a last ditch effort to tie the match, but the North Stars' Kian Bell was able to put one in the empty net at 19:26 resulting in a 4-2 loss for the home team.

Allen blocked 48 of the 51 shots faced.

Josh Kotai was in net for the win, facing 37 shots.

The Terriers will visit Weyburn to take on the Red Wings on Feb. 4 and host the Flin Flon Bombers at Westland Arena on Feb. 8.
