Swan makes it 2 wins in a row, 5-2 in Portage.

The Swan Valley Stampeders ((4-4-0-1) came into Portage and played their best game of the season to defeated the Portage Terriers (6-4-0-1) 5-2 in Portage Friday night.

Kyle Smart opened the scoring for the Stamps tapping one home to make it 1-0. Portage would respond with just over a minute to go in first as Matt Glowa evened it at one after 20 minutes.

Max Flanagan would regain the 1 goal lead in the Powerplay in the 2nd finishing off a rebound to make it 2-1 SV after 2 periods.

In the last frame, Stamps captain Dylan Reimer would make it 3-1 making the Terriers pay for a mistake. Just over 7 minutes later Dylan Favell would capitalize on Terrier goalie Adam Iwans mistake put it in the open net to make it 4-1 mid way through the third. Portage would cut the lead with just over a minute to go but it was too late. Newcomer Mitchell Eisenberg would ice it into the empty net for his 1st MJHL goal to make it a 5-2 final. While fellow newcome Landon Noel stopped 22 quality shots for his 1st win in his first appearance as a Stamp.

1. Dylan Favell- 1G 2A
2. Landon Noel- 22 saves, 1st MJ win
3. Riley Hiebert- shutdown top line, was beast all night

The Stampeders continue road trip Saturday in Steinbach.
