North Stars pull through in overtime to beat Klippers
In their final home game of the regular season last night, the Battlefords North Stars ended up beating the Kindersley Klippers 3-2 in overtime to keep their chance for sixth place alive.
To start off the game, the North Stars struck right away, getting a goal just 40 seconds into the first period, coming from Braden Nienaber to take a 1-0 lead.
As the period went on, the North Stars continued to control the game, keeping Kinderlsey deep in their own zone which resulted in another goal for Battlefords, coming from Josh Knittig to extend the lead to 2-0 going into the second period.
Coming out for the second, the North Stars started to slow down a bit and had a hard time getting things going offensively. Then after a few Battlefords penalties, the Klippers had some chances on the powerplay and converted on one of them to lessen the gap and make it a 2-1 game.
