North Stars overcome early deficit to top league-leading Hawks in SO
The Battlefords North Stars appeared to be severely outmatched to begin Tuesday’s game in Nipawin against the league-leading Hawks.
But that was only at first.
The 28-5-2-2 Hawks struck twice in the opening five minutes, and then added a third goal right before the first intermission to take a commanding lead into the break.
Against a team that hadn’t lost at home since Sept. 29, coming back would be a tall task.
