The Prince Albert Raiders ended the first half of the 2010-2011 season with a 6-4 victory over the Regina Pats to put the Raiders 6 points ahead of them heading into the Christmas break.
The Prince Albert Raiders got up 1-0 after Shane Danyluk skated into the offensive zone and wristed a quick shot past the Pats defender that beat goaltender Matt Hewitt at 4:38 of the first period. Regina though would tie the game at 1 after capitalizing on a Raider defensive zone turnover. The Raiders would take it from there in the first period. Mark McNeill would get the Raiders up by one after just getting back to even strength; he was able to beat the defenceman wide and looked to pass the puck to the trailing James Bettauer. McNeill however, held the puck, skated into the middle and beat Hewitt five hole with a quick snap shot.
That would end Hewitt's night after letting 2 goals in on 7 shots. Damien Ketlo stepped in to relieve Hewitt at 13:28 of the first period.
