Raiders shutout for third straight game, lose 3-0 in Vancouver

Dec 11, 2014 | 1:41 AM

Make it three straight games without a goal for the Raiders. Vancouver Giants goalie Payton Lee made 29 saves in a 3-0 victory, the fourth in a row for the Giants and third straight for new coach Claude Noel.

Jackson Houck opened the scoring miday through the second period on a screen shot that beat Raider goalie Nick McBride from the left wing circle. The Giants got the insurance marker on a third period power play from Joel Hamilton while Tyler Benson sealed the win with an empty net goal at 18:21 of the final frame.

The Raider offense never got going as the Giants applied pressure in all three zones. The Prince Albert power play went 0-5 and is now 0-for-its-last-13 and just 2-21 on this road trip.

Nick McBride turned in another impressive performance in goal with 34 saves while newcomer Raymond Grewal was solid on defense in his Raider debut.

The dry spell leaves the Raiders without a goal in over 180 minutes of playing time and riding a three game losing streak heading into Friday night`s game against the Ice in Kootenay.
