Fadden recorded his second straight 1+1 night helping the Americans to a huge victory over the league’s top team. Fadden is now back at a point-per-game rate for the season and is catching fire. Wright had a night to forget in the plus/minus category. Vancouver saw two streaks end: A seven game win streak, and Evander Kane’s 22 game point streak.
Moose Jaw Warriors 0 @ Edmonton Oil Kings 4
G Torrie Jung, EDM: Win, 15 saves, shutout, *Third Star*
Season totals: 13 GP, 6-4-0-3, 2.66 GAA, .912 sv%, 2 shutouts
Kamloops Blazers 4 @ Spokane Chiefs 2
G Dustin Tokarski, SPO: Loss, 28 saves
Season totals: 24 GP, 13-9-0-2, 2.02 GAA, .937 sv%, 3 shutouts
Tokarski allowed more than three goals for the second time this year – and in consecutive nights – which upped his GAA up over two for the first time this year. He was playing his third game in as many days. Despite a recent 6-8-0-1 stretch, Tik still leads the league in both GAA and save percentage.
Regina Pats 7 @ Prince George Cougars 1
C/W Dana Tyrell, PG: 1-0-1, -1, 0 PIM, *Third Star*
Season totals: 26 GP, 18-17-35, -21, 27 PIM
