Former Raiders forward Hayden Pakkala scored twice as the Lethbridge Hurricanes edged the Prince Albert Raiders 4-3 Saturday night at the Art Hauser Centre.

Falling behind 4-1, the Raiders rallied to make the game interesting in the third period courtesy of a pair of Krzysztof Macias goals, but ultimately fell short by one.

The loss snapped the Raiders win streak at three games.

Hurricanes goaltender Harrison Meneghin was sharp, making 37 saves, including a number of key stops off Raiders sniper Sloan Stanick.

With the win Lethbridge moves to within one point of the Raiders for seventh in the Western Hockey League’s Eastern Conference standings. Both teams remain in playoff spots.
