PRINCE GEORGE — The Spruce Kings got a very much needed win last night to wrap up the three-game homestand.
The Kings were 5-2 winners against the West Kelowna Warriors, and they did it in style. Prince George rolled out some slick-looking red-threads for the fans at the RMCA.
In the opening period, the Spruce Kings found themselves on the power-play, and they converted. Nick Bochen took a shot from the point and found its way in the back of the net to give PG a 1-0 lead. The Spruce Kings took the one-goal lead to the dressing room after the opening twenty minutes.
In the second period, Nick Bochen blew a tire at the blue line, leading to a Warriors three on one. Prince George native Brandon Dent converted for the Warriors tying the game up at one. The goal was Dent’s team-leading 11th of the season. The Spruce Kings were able to answer late in the second. Ryan McAllister fired a picture-perfect shot top cheddar over goaltender Johnny Derrick to regain the Spruce Kings lead. Just over a minute later, Nick Poisson tipped a puck off a Bochen point shot that gave the Spruce Kings a two-goal lead after forty minutes.
