Well that was fun!
The Wranglers hosted the San Jose Barracuda at the Scotiabank Saddledome Sunday, coming off their first win on home ice in their previous outing Friday night.
And the offence exploded.
Matthew Phillips scored three goals to record his second career hat-trick, extending his scoring streak to seven games in the process. Connor Zary and Mitch McLain both scored twice, Radim Zohorna and Jeremie Poirier added three assists each and Jakob Pelletier scored a goal and added helpers in 8-2 victory.
Dustin Wolf got his third-straight start between the pipes for the Wranglers, making 31 saves for his fourth win of the season.
CGY Goal Scorers: Matthew Phillips (3), Connor Zary (2), Mitch McLain (2), Jakob Pelletier
It was announced prior to the game that Nick DeSimone and Dennis Gilbert got the call up to the Flames (NHL), so Rory Kerins and Simon Lavigne were recalled from Rapid City (ECHL). Kerins made his presence known early in the first period, as he found the puck on his stick in the slot and scored, however the goal was called back due to goaltender interference.
