WHL: 

Prince George Cougars  9  Tri-City Americans  3  (Saturday)

The Cougars exploded for six unanswered goals in the 3rd period, with four of them in a 67-second span, three of which came on the power play.

Terik Parascak scored twice and added three assists while Kooper Gizowski notched a goal and three assists as P.G. improved to 4-0 on the road.

“Junior Hockey at its finest right there”, joked Assistant Coach Carter Rigby on the 94.3 the Goat post-game show. “The resilience and leadership from our group tonight was fabulous. You lose Perry (Terik Parascak) there for a little bit at the end of the second and then he gets back on gets the train to roll in the right direction. It was a wild one, but proud of the group for sticking with it when it was tied in a tough barn and thankful to pull that one out.”
