Mintos give up four goals in third to lose 5-2 to Harvest
“When you take a team lightly, that’s what happens.”
That was Prince Albert Mintos captain Jason Duret after his team collapsed in the third period, giving up four unanswered goals in the third to the Yorkton Harvest in a 5-2 loss.
The Harvest came into the game with just one win with a 1-7-0-1 record and lost to the previously winless Beardy’s Blackhawks on Saturday. Duret said the Mintos were aware of both of those facts and thought Sunday’s game at the Art Hauser Centre would be easy. The Harvest had other ideas.
“We have to learn from this, you can’t be doing that,” said the 17-year-old forward from Prince Albert. “Lots of these guys don’t know, they just look at the standings and see Yorkton in second last and they think we’re going to win.
