Winnipeg Ice News Release
The Winnipeg ICE finish off their two-game series with the Prince Albert Raiders on Sunday night at the ICE Cave in Wayne Fleming Arena. The ICE got a crucial 6-3 win against the Raiders on Saturday night that saw them stay atop the East Division.
For the second straight night Owen Pederson put the ICE up early, with his 16th of the season coming only 1:19 into the game. Nolan Orzeck and Connor McClennon drew the assists on the goal. After Ozzy Wiesblatt tied things up for the Raiders, the ICE regained the lead as Pederson scored his second of the period to put the ICE up 2-1. Raider's leading scorer Aliaksei Protas tied things up on a powerplay three minutes later as the teams headed into the first intermission at 2-2.
It was all Prince Albert in the second period, as Reece Vitelli scored two goals in the frame, and Brayden Watts scored another one as the Raiders would take a 5-2 lead into the third period. The shots were 23-19 in favor of Prince Albert after two periods.
Cole Muir would get the ICE within two goals in the third period but that was as far as they would get as the Raiders took their revenge with a 5-3 win.
The ICE will be back in action on Wednesday when the Medicine Hat Tigers are in town for a midweek matchup.
