Battlefords Sharks win in first Q98 broadcast

After one: Tied 1-1, shots 10-5 Sharks

Both of Johnston’s goals came in the second period, and they were the only goals in the frame for both teams.

First, Johnston deflected a point shot from Kylar Kehrig near the halfway mark of the frame, at the 9:07 mark, for her seventh goal of the season.

Johnston got her eighth of the year on the power play with just 24 seconds left in the frame.

Deobald walked into the slot before losing a handle of the puck, but it went right to Johnston, who scored to put the Sharks up two goals heading into the final frame.

After two: 3-1 Sharks, shots 10-9 Sharks, 20-14 Sharks total

A Sharks milestone was celebrated just one minute into the period. On a scramble in front during a power play, Blake Turner scored her first goal in the SFU18AAAHL to put the Sharks up 4-1 at the 19:00 mark.

More than halfway through the frame, Brianne Cripps responded with her first goal in the league, scoring on a deflection to cut the Sharks’ lead to 4-2.

However, Battlefords got a couple more back to cap off the win.

First, Deobald scored from the point at the 1:45 mark for her fourth goal of the season to put the Sharks up 5-2.

Just over a minute later, Madison Cordes was sent on a quick breakaway and got her third goal of the season to give her squad a four-goal lead with 43 seconds left.

Final score: 6-2 Sharks, shots 13-10 Sharks, 33-24 Sharks total

With the victory, the Sharks got back in the win column after a recent 1-0 overtime loss to the Regina Rebels.

Their next game is on Nov. 7 when they face the Notre Dame Hounds on the road.

The Sharks next broadcast on Q98 will be on Dec. 1 when they’re back in Saskatoon to take on the Stars.
