North Stars take game 1 barn burner 7-4 over Bruins
The Battlefords North Stars fired 55 shots on goal and dominated for much of game one of the semifinals against Estevan, but the final score wasn’t a blowout, as the home side came away with a 7-4 win at the Civic Centre on Friday night.
The season series between the two teams was extremely similar to how game one played out: tons of penalties for both sides and plenty of goals.
Before game one, both coaches thought this playoff series would be much different, expecting each side to be more disciplined and tighter defensively.
That wasn’t the case.
