Beaver Blues trio shines in win over Shellbrook
The Battleford Beaver Blues exploded for nine goals in their win over the Shellbrook Silvertips on Friday evening at Battleford Arena.
The 9-5 win was their ninth in the 2016-17 Saskatchewan Prairie Hockey League regular season with just four games to go. Their 9-5 record currently has them fourth out of 10 teams.
Scoring in droves isn’t new for the Beaver Blues, as they have 91 goals in just 14 games this season. How they managed to win also wasn’t new, as once again it was their top trio of Cody Danberg, Mike George and Brent Salzl leading the way. Danberg had two goals and an assist, George had a goal and three helpers, and Salz had two goals and two assists.
The linemates also currently sit second, third, and fourth in league scoring, Danberg with 46 points, Salzl with 41, and George with 34.
