The Story:

Beginning a stretch of three games in seven days against Tri-City, Portland traveled to Kennewick for their 21st contest of the season Wednesday.

For the fourth time in the last six games the Winterhawks started the night by allowing a goal in the first two minutes. It was also the sixth consecutive game they've allowed the game's first goal.

Fortunately there was an answer for the visitors, five of them to be exact.

Seth Jarvis tied the game with his first of three on the night just 46 seconds later and 2:10 into the contest Mason Mannek gave Portland the lead, one they would not relinquish. The two goals were piggybacked by Simon Knak, who also had multiple goals on the night. Both Jarvis and Mannek got their second to round at the first at 5-1, shocking the Americans after their quick start.

The Americans showed life in the second by starting the middle frame's scoring, but the hat trick completing tally for Carolina Hurricanes prospect made it 6-2.

Simon Knak put up the metaphorical "extra point" to make it 7-2 on the third, capping the night's scoring.

THEY SAID IT

TBD

- Tri-City removed starting netminder Talyn Boyko after Portland's fourth goal, which came on their 11th shot of the night.

- Dante Giannuzzi stopped 20 consecutive shots to end the evening.

- In total six skaters had multiple points for Portland (Jarvis, Mannek, Knak, Robbie Fromm-Delorme, Jaydon Dureau and Clay Hanus)
