Warriors storm back on Raiders
The Prince Albert Raiders watched a third period lead disappear as the Moose Jaw Warriors struck four times in the final nine minutes of Thursday night’s game, beating the Raiders 5-2 at Mosaic Place in Moose Jaw.
Brett Leason and Devon Skoleski scored for the Raiders, while Curtis Meger made 37 saves in the loss.
With the Raiders carrying a 2-1 lead with less than ten minutes remaining, the Warriors converted their second power play goal of the game to pull even as Brayden Burke one-timed a Brett Howden pass, beating Meger to make it 2-2.
As the final buzzer drew nearer, Moose Jaw took a 3-2 lead with less than four minutes to play on a tic-tac-toe passing play finished by Jayden Halbgewachs, before depositing two more goals in the next 35 seconds to make it a 5-2 contest, which is how the game would end.
