Estevan’s Didur stops 46 in Bruins 4-3 win over North Stars
The Battlefords North Stars were all over the Estevan Bruins Saturday night at Affinity Place, but they were stonewalled by netminder Bo Didur again and again and lost the contest 4-3 in regulation.
“It’s a tough way to lose,” North Stars assistant coach Boyd Wakelin said after the game. “I thought that was one of the best games we’ve played in the last while. Guys were going to the net. We controlled the majority of the play. The shots kind of tell the tale….We played in their end most of the night.”
The final shots on goal favoured the visitors 49-20.
“It’s always annoying and frustrating when you’re not putting them past him as much as you’d like,” Wakelin said. “We did put three past him. I think that’s a pretty good number in our league. If you only give up 20 shots [and] if you put three behind him, usually you’re going to win.”
