The Yorkton Terriers (6-1-0-0, 2nd in Sherwood) took the first installment of the Highway 10 rivalry, defeating the Melville Millionaires (6-2-1, 1st in Sherwood) 4-3 in the shootout on home ice.
The Terriers opened the scoring 2:51 into the 1st as Brenden Poncelet put home a gift into the open Mils net for his 2nd of the season with Dylan Johnson drawing the lone helper. The Mils though wasted no time evening the game at 1 apiece as TJ Reeve tipped home his first of two on the night off a great low shot by Rylan Badduke just 3:28 later and it was tied at 1. But it was the Terriers getting their lone powerplay goal of the evening as Brady Norrish shot from the top of circle beat Mils Goalie Alex Wakaluk and it was 2-1.
Shots- 17-13 MLV
While in the 2nd period, TJ Reeve got his 2nd of the game and 4th goal of the season taking a feed from Allan Kilback and putting it home to even the hockey game at 2. The Mils would take their first lead of the hockey game as Mils captain Lucas Froese captitalized on a Terriers turnover and walked in alone on Kale Thomson and buried it for his 6th of the season and it was 3-2.
Shots- 13-13
There would be no scoring in the first half of the 3rd period before Terriers forward Tyler Giebel tied the hockey game at 3-3 his 3rd of the season and that would send both teams to over time for the first time this season
Shots- 10-7 MLV
In the overtime session there was good pace back and forth early and the Terriers thought they won it but couldn't get a stick on the open puck as the net was wide open. Then Mils Russell Trudeau took a tripping penalty and that sent the Terriers to their 4th powerplay of the game, but that was short lived as Terriers' defenceman Austin Bourhis who was playing his 1st game since being sent back by the Moose Jaw Warriors took a roughing penalty. The Mils would get a short powerplay late in the extra frame and had many glorious chances even hitting the post a couple times

Once AGAIN the Terriers proved they are just a bunch of goons who have the reg on their side once again....the Mills are the better team but never ever have a ref on their side.
ReplyDeleteMeant Ref on their side
ReplyDeleteBOO HOO.......stop with the excuses!!!
ReplyDeleteBoth teams played great. The Mils and Terriers played their hearts out and the Mils outplayed the Terriers for a good part of the 2nd. I thought it was a great game with niether team taking cheap shots like a few other here in the league. So stop with the excuses the Mils lost in a shoot out! The game could of gone either way as both goaltenders were awsome!!!and all of the rest of the team (both sides)played a good solid 65 minutes of hockey.
