North Stars wrap up the pre-season on high note
The Battlefords North Stars finished off their preseason last night with a 3-1 win over the Kindersley Klippers at the West Central Events Centre.
The North Stars started hot right out of the gate, putting on a barrage of shots while barely letting the Klippers touch the puck. Then just under six minutes into the game, while on the power play, Rylan Williams got the first goal on a beautiful cross-crease pass from Kobie Anderson to go up one.
From there on out, the floodgates opened.
The North Stars scored twice more in the period, one from Jackson Allan on the power play assisted by Elijah Anderson, and the other, an unassisted goal from Braden Nienaber on a loose puck in front of the net. The first period came to an end with the North Stars dominating, holding a 3-0 lead, going 2/2 on the power play, and outshooting Kindersley 17-9.
