5 in a row!


River Park South, MB
LATE SUNDAY RESULT

“5 in a row!”. That was the headline most Winnipegers woke up to this past Monday morning, after the Lube Kings machine rolled over the rivaled 13 Guys and a Puck at the Dakota CC Sunday night.

Recording his second 2 goal performance in as may games, the Rookie showed signs of feeling much more comfortable on the ice than in past campaigns. Keep your eye on this kid in upcoming games. Also please note on your score cards that Bryce has now notched his first goal of the season by firing a Howitser from the left point.

Backstopped by call up goalie Mike Martin making his 4th start for the Kings this year, the Lube Kings came out of the blocks firing on all cylinders. The strategy on this night was clear; shoot the puck and good things will happen. Despite not registering a goal in the first period, the Lube Kings fired a team record 16 shots on net. Knowing the 13 Guys keeper could not keep up with this pace, the Lube Kings did not let up in the second and third periods, and eventually wound up solving their goalie 6 times en route to recording their 9th victory of the season.

The Lube Kings have now lost only once in the past 9 games. Stay tuned.
