It’s another one for the Prince George Spruce Kings to forget.
The Spruce Kings fell 6-2 to the Vernon Vipers in front of 2,492 fans at Kal Tire Place.
The game was tied at one heading into the second courtesy of a Luca Primerano tally.
The Vipers opened the floodgates in the second, scoring three goals, two of which came on the powerplay.
Spruce Kings netminder Ryan Sanborn got the hook on the Vipers second goal of the period, after allowing three goals on just 14 shots.
Marcus Ouellet came in for relief, but didn’t fare any better, allowing two on just six shots.
After the Vipers scored less than a minute into the third, Ouellet was pulled and Sanborn came back in.
Max Ranstrom scored for the Spruce Kings to cut into the lead, but the Vipers would add one more with the man-advantage.
