Raiders’ Stewart scores the goal he’s been dreaming about; Wild sign Warner
Ever since he drafted by the Prince Albert Raiders back on May 3, 2012, Dylan Stewart has been wondering how he would score his first WHL goal.
He doesn’t have to wonder anymore.
Stewart’s first goal was the game-winner in the Raiders’ 5-3 over the Saskatoon Blades on Friday in the Raiders’ home opener at the Art Hauser Centre.
Just 2:30 into the third period, Raiders defenceman Brennan Riddle kept the puck in at the blueline and funneled it towards the net. Stewart corralled the puck on his forehand with has back to the net, then spun and fired a wrist shot past the blocker of Blades goaltender Troy Trombley.
