Klippers score five unanswered to top Wolverines
The Kindersley Klippers made the most of the final two periods, racking up five unanswered goals in that span to cruise to their third victory over the Warman Wolverines this season with a 9-4 win on Friday night in Warman.
The Wolverines welcomed in a new forward in Corban Almen, who made his SJHL debut following previous WHL experience with the Regina Pats and the Pentiction Vees. The Klippers drew first blood in the opening frame when Avery Johnson netted his seventh goal and Cobe Perlinger scored for the third time to put the visitors up 2-0.
Johnson said twice is nice as he found his second goal of the game to extend the Kindersley lead to 3-0 with the game still less than six minutes old. But the Wolverines responded when Cam Sarna scored for a second straight game with a power play goal to put Warman on the board. The Wolverines did more damage when Peyton Allard found the back of the net to cut the lead to one at 3-2.
A wild opening period continued as Cam Perlinger put the Klippers back ahead by two when he collected his thrd goal with his twin brother Cobe recording the assist. But once again Warman had an answer as Riley Rich-Holden tied Kane Kennedy for the team goal scoring lead with his sixth and Brodie Scopick knotted the game at 4-4 with a shorthanded breakaway goal for the Wolverines. The teams combined for 40 shots in the opening frame, with Warman holding a 21-19 edge.
