Terriers 5 Bombers 2


 

 

The Flin Flon Bombers found out that there is a lot more to the Yorkton Terriers than Brett Boehm. The Terriers opened up the scoring at 4:43 of the opening period and never looked back.

 

Yorkton scored three more times in the second to build a 4-0 lead after two. Austin Calladine scored his 12th and 13th in the third to make a game of it, but that is as close as the Bombers would get.  The Terriers replied with a goal in the third to pick up their 24th win of the season in the 5-2 victory.

 

Terrier goal scorers were: Giebel(7), Gatzke(5)and (6), Ellis(7) and McMullen(8). With the win Yorkton moves to within four points of Melville for first place in the Viterra Division, with three games in hand.

 

The Bombers remain in fourth spot in the Sherwood division with a record of: 16-20-0-2, two points behind Laronge with a game in hand, and four points behind Melfort and Nipawin.  The Bombers have two games in hand on Melfort and Nipawin has a game in hand on the Bombers.

 

Flin Flon has 18 games left with ten against Sherwood opponents. Flin Flon prepares for Nipawin and Melfort this Tuesday and Wednesday, as they hit the road for the first time in 2014.

 

The Bombers are 1-2 against the Hawks this season with their one victory coming on Jan 8th, when Flin Flon won 6-1 at the Whitney Forum. That was the last game in a Bomber uniform for Cam Blair, Devin Buffalo, Sam Williams and Dillan McCombie who were all dealt after that game.

 

Flin Flon is 2-2 against the Mustangs and they haven't played each other since November the 27th. Both teams have changed a lot since then, including a new coach behind the Melfort bench. Former player and assistant coach Trevor Blevins was brought in for the rest of the season to replace Gavin Holcomb who was let go in early December to the surprise of many.

 

All the action on 102.9 CFAR and flinflononline.com this Tuesday and Wednesday with the Murray GM Coach's Show starting things at 7:15.
