TERRIERS 4, MILLIONAIRES 1
The Yorkton Terriers now have points in 6 straight games, after a 4-1 victory over the Melville Millionaires to kick off 2022.
The Terriers’ got off to a good start in the 1st scoring two late goals late in the period as 20 year olds Erik Boers and Tanner Sklaruk to give Yorkton a 2-0 lead after the first.
In the 2nd, the Terriers added to their lead at around the half-way point as Greg Nelson would chip in his 1st goal as a Terrier to push the lead to three through 40 minutes.
The two teams would exchange goals in the 3rd period as Kishaun Gervais gave Yorkton a 4-0 lead before Jonathan Krahn got the Mills on the board but that’s as close as they would get.
