The Spokane Chiefs won their second straight pre-season contest with a 5-1 victory over the Tri-City Americans on Saturday in Everett. Spokane outshot the Americans 41-22 including 16-6 in the first period.

Rookie 18-year-old Dustin Donaghy scored two goals and fellow first year forward Tyler Johnson had a goal and two assists in the win. Donaghy began the scoring at 15:20 of the first to give the Chiefs a 1-0 lead after one.

After Tri-City scored at 1:27 of the second to even it up, the Chiefs scored four unanswered, including three times in the second. Third-year veteran defenseman Justin Falk scored at 9:49, with 15-year-old Mike Betz assisting, and Donaghy tallied less than a minute later at 10:41. Johnson’s goal came at 18:24 from Jace Coyle and Ondrej Roman.

Mitch Wahl, the Chiefs Rookie of the Year last season, finished the scoring at 1:21 of the third with an unassisted goal.

Seventeen-year-old rookie goaltender James Reid stopped 22 shots as the Chiefs were perfect on three penalty kills. Spokane was 0-4 on the powerplay.

I've got Donaghy, Johnson, Gallimore, and at this point Bartman added to the team this year. If we're dealing Armstrong away, Keumper will fit in nicely as a backup goaltender.
