Tired Raiders get gutsy win in Calgary; Rhinehart wins Challenge Cup
If the Prince Albert Raiders were tired in their third game in two-and-a-half days, they didn’t show it on Sunday.
The Raiders (4-7-1) skated to a 3-2 victory against the Calgary Hitmen (3-5-1), their first win in the Scotiabank Saddledome since Nov. 26, 2014—a 2-1 victory. The Raiders were 0-3 and outscored 20-3 in their previous three trips to the Saddledome.
The Raiders got going after a snipe from newcomer Adam Kadlec 8:57 into the first period, his first WHL career goal in his 13th career game. He’s played his last three for the Raiders since they acquired the 1999-born rookie from the Prince George Cougars on Tuesday, Oct.18.
Former Hitmen defender Loch Morrison assisted on the goal.
