Mustangs back to winning ways
The Melfort Mustangs losing streak did not last long in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League.
They gathered a 3-1 win Friday in Melville over the Millionaires, stopping their mini two game losing skid from last weekend.
Melfort got an early powerplay just 15 seconds into the first period, but Melville seemed to have the momentum. The Millionaires would get on the board first when Luke Nkwama was left wide open in the slot for his third tally of the season. The Mustangs would get a few chances, but were down on the score clock 10-6.
In the second period, the Mustangs would turn it on, getting a whole ton of chances, and finally capitalized at the 13:10 mark of the frame when Boedy Donald scored his second goal of the season with a wrist shot from the point. Then, with five seconds left in the frame, the Mustangs were swarming in the Millionaire end. Colin Schmidt tried the wraparound, but missed. That was followed up by Kenzie Arnold who tried a wraparound of his own. The puck bounced off a Millionaires skate in front, and through the five hole of Millionaire netminder Colby Entz.
