Last Time Out
The Portland Winterhawks secured a 5-3 victory over the Victoria Royals at Veterans Memorial Coliseum, highlighted by five players posting multi-point performances. Captain Kyle Chyzowski led the charge with four assists, while Ryan Miller netted two goals, and Carsyn Dyck, Tyson Jugnauth, and Diego Buttazzoni each tallied multiple points. Goaltender Ondřej Štěbeták delivered a career-high 37 saves, while Portland's power play went 3-for-5. After a tightly contested first period, the Winterhawks rallied in the second and third to close out the win.
Previewing Prince George: Scouting the Opposition
The Prince George Cougars enter Tuesday's rematch looking to avenge their 3-2 loss to the Winterhawks last weekend in Portland. Despite outshooting Portland 40-33, the Cougars couldn't hold off the Hawks in the final moments. Viliam Kmec and Hunter Laing led the scoring for Prince George, with Kmec notching his first of the season in the first period and Laing adding a power-play tally early in the second.
The Cougars will aim to capitalize on their offensive zone time after recording 17 shots in the first period alone. Goaltender Cooper Michaluk kept his team in the game with 30 saves, but Portland's Ryan Miller broke the tie with just three seconds left in regulation to steal the win. -
