North Stars win-streak snapped by Bruins
The Battlefords North Stars had a tight game with the Estevan Bruins on the road Friday night but ultimately fell 3-2, ending their seven-game winning streak.
The Stars are now 19-4-1 this season.
After the game, head coach Brandon Heck said he wasn’t overly upset with his team’s effort, believing they never “gave up a scoring chance in the third period.”
“I was pretty pleased with the way we played in the second and third. I thought we limited their scoring chances,” Heck said. “I thought our guys played well defensively and so did [Estevan]. Both teams weren’t aggressive on the forecheck. There was a lot of neutral zone play and both teams worked hard in the d-zone to stick with their guys.”
