Cougars can’t complete comeback, edged by Rockets 3-2
PRINCE GEORGE — The Kelowna Rockets returned serve against the Prince George Cougars Friday (Feb. 18) from the CN Centre.
After the Cougars beat the Rockets on the road 5-2 two days earlier, the Cougars fell 3-2 in the rematch.
The Cougars outshot the Rockets 11-3 in a scoreless first period.
“It’s somewhat frustrating not burying those chances early in the game, but it’s about how you’re creating and how you’re playing and that was a major positive tonight,” Mark Lamb, Cougars general manager and head coach says. “We created a lot but got behind the eight ball and just didn’t have enough to finish it.”
