Stars show teeth despite 3-0 loss to Bobcats
They may not be natural rivals, or even play in the same league; but don’t tell that to the Battlefords North Stars and Lloydminster Bobcats.
The North Stars fell 3-0 to the Bobcats Saturday in a contest that had all the grit and sizzle of a midseason showdown between vaunted rival teams at the Centennial Civic Centre in Lloydminster.
Bobcats’ forward Tyler Schendel, opened the scoring for the home team with a power play goal at the 12:40 mark of the first period. Alex Danis and Kris Bladen added to the Cats’ lead and goalie, Cale Edler stopped all 21 shots he faced in the opening half.
Eighteen-year-old Garrett Larsen closed out the contest with another 15 saves of his own to secure the win.
