Drop Decision To Hawks (blazerhockey.com)
For the second straight night, the Blazers fell behind 3-1 in the first period, but this time were unable to rally...ultimately falling 5-2 to the Portland Winterhawks on Sunday night at Interior Savings Centre.
Brian Woolger opened the scoring midway through the first period before Roman Tesliuk tied the game with a 4-on-4 goal less then three minutes later. But the Hawks restored the lead just 27 seconds after THAT on Woolger's second of the game, then Brandon Dubinsky put the Hawks up 3-1 another 24 seconds later with a powerplay goal.
Michael Sauer gave Portland a 4-1 lead with the lone goal in the second period...despite the fact the Blazers outshot the Hawks 14-6.
Matt Kassian cut the Hawk lead to 4-2 with a powerplay goal of his own early in the third, but Woolger's hat trick goal with 9 minutes left, shorthanded, ended any hope of a Blazer comeback.
Final shots were 31-20 Blazers. Kamloops was 1-for-12 on the PP and 9-for-10 on the PK.
Devan Dubnyk suffered the loss while Dustin Butler was solid in the win.
