GAME SUMMARY:

The Hawks opened the scoring tonight in Portland, as Carter Sotheran led an odd-man rush and sauced a perfect pass to Alex Weiermair, whose one-timer beat the glove of reigning WHL Goaltender of the Week Michal Orsulak to give Portland a 1-0 lead after one period.

Portland doubled its advantage when Ryan Miller drove through the far-side circle and the puck found Sam Spehar, who fired a quick snipe past Orsulak to make it 2-0 heading into the third period.

Prince Albert struck early in the final frame, with Evan Smith netting his seventh of the season 4:54 in. The Raiders added three more in the third, including an empty-netter, to complete the comeback and take a 4-2 victory in Portland.
