The Yorkton Terriers rode a three-goal first period to their second straight victory Wednesday, defeating the Flin Flon Bombers 5-2 at Westland Arena.
Thomas Ries, Mattias Schoffner, and William Leonard each scored power-play goals in the opening frame to give Yorkton a commanding 3-0 lead after 20 minutes. Leonard added his second of the night—and fifth of the season—in the middle period, while Gabriel Courchesne capped the scoring late in the third.
Maverick Deslisle and Joes Lies replied for Flin Flon with a pair of third-period power-play markers.
Goaltender Alexandro Montoya was stellar again for the Terriers, turning aside 47 of 49 shots for his second straight win. Matthew Bradley stopped 28 shots in the loss for the Bombers.
The Terriers now turn their attention to a home-and-home series this weekend against the defending SJHL champion Melfort Mustangs, starting Friday night in Yorkton.
