Goal explosion gives North Stars dominant win in game 2
After a subpar performance in their 4-3 game one win over Weyburn on Friday, the Battlefords North Stars found the back of the net eight times in game two to take a 2-0 series lead.
Despite the lopsided 8-3 score on Saturday, the North Stars defensive effort was still lacking, something North Stars head coach Nate Bedford alluded to after the win.
“Six goals [against] in two games, anybody will tell you that’s not really our game,” Bedford said. “You can work hard and get 90 on a test by working hard or you can get 90 on a test by cheating and I think we were cheating ourselves a little bit for the first two games here.
“We need to stop giving away such prime scoring opportunities…[but] I thought overall we were better and I think that’s important.”
