Last Time Out
For the first time this season, Portland scored the opening goal, with Kayd Ruedig striking just 1:56 into the game. Max Pšenička lasered a one-timer for his first of the season to level the score at two headed into the first intermission. Kamloops took control of the second frame with two unanswered goals - including rookie JP Hurlbert's second of the night - to lead 4-2 early in the third.
Portland responded with three straight goals: Jordan Duguay added his first tally of the night, and Pšenička each netted their second of the game to tie it, and Jake Gustafson scored the game-winner as he notched his first WHL goal with 2:26 left. Duguay added an empty-netter to seal a 6-4 win.
Duguay (2G, 2A), Pšenička (2G, 2A), and Carsyn Dyck (3A) all set new career highs for points in a game.
Flight Report
Portland forward Ryan Miller has opened the season on a tear, recording a point in every game he's played. The Medicine Hat, Alberta native surpassed 50 career points as a Winterhawk last week in Penticton and now leads the team with 6 points through 5 games, tied with second-year forward Jordan Duguay.
Carter Sotheran and Alex Weiermair are nearing big moments with the Winterhawks. Veteran blueliner Sotheran is just two points shy of 100 career points in a Portland sweater across 203 WHL regular-season games. Weiermair, meanwhile, is one tally away from hitting the 50-point mark in his WHL career.
Hurricane Watch
Portland and Lethbridge face off just once each season, with the Winterhawks owning a perfect 3-0 record in their last three meetings. The last time Portland visited Lethbridge, they flew past the Hurricanes with a 3-1 victory.
The Canes enter the night with a 2-5-0-0 record and are coming off a tight 3-2 win over the Red Deer Rebels on Tuesday night. The team is led by veteran forward Shane Smith, who joined the team in early October of last season after being acquired from the Medicine Hat Tigers. The Cessford, Alberta native is maintaining a point per game, and has tallied 8 points (4G, 4A) in seven games played this year. Four-year winger Luke Cozens also sits with a team-high 8 points (3G, 5A)
