Flin Flon Blasts La Ronge

It was all Bombers in the first of a home-and-home series with the La Ronge Ice Wolves on Friday evening.

 

Flin Flon pelted La Ronge goalie Luke Lush with 76 shots, putting 11 by him, to win 11-0.

 

Brandon Lesko led the way for the Bombers with five points (3G, 2A), while Jason Lavallee (1G, 3A), Brody Madarash (1G, 1A), Eric Sinclair (1G, 2A) and Nick Shumlanski (1G, 1A)  put up multi-point performances.

 

Brenden Newton made 16 saves to pick up the shutout in.

 

The game was anything but a blowout Saturday when the teams played again in La Ronge.

 

The Bombers got out to an early 3-0 first period lead before the Ice Wolves answered back in the second with two of their own.

 

Rylee Zimmer scored his 18th of the year early in the third to make it a 4-2 game, before Austin Shumanski brought La Ronge within one with his second of the season.

 

The game would end that way, 4-3, with Gunnar Neilsen picking up his third win of the season with the Bombers after coming over from the Kindersley Klippers.

 

With the wins, Flin Flon has improved to 34-12-2-3 on the season with 73 points, 12 back of the Battleford North Stars.
