CALGARY – The offensive woes continue for the Lethbridge Pronghorns, suffering a second straight loss to the Calgary Dinos, falling 3-0 in Canada West men's hockey action.

Friday night in the front half of the home-and-home series, the Dinos beat the Pronghorns 4-1 in Lethbridge.

The loss is the Pronghorns fourth in a row and third shutout loss during that stretch, dropping the Pronghorns record to 2-6-0 on the season. Moving in the opposite direction, the win is the Dinos fourth in a row and improves their record to 5-2-1.

Throughout the first frame the Dinos controlled the play, most notably in the offensive zone, but were repeatedly unable to beat Pronghorns goaltender Garret Hughson, who made a total of 17 saves in the first 20.

The game was scoreless heading into the middle stanza.

Only 90 seconds were needed by the Dinos to nab the game's opening goal. Shortly after an unsuccessful power play, forward Logan Fisher backhanded the puck towards the goal from below the goal line, and found a lucky bounce as the puck went off a stick and a skate before trickling past Hughson, making it 1-0.

Lethbridge managed a grade-A scoring chance in the final seconds of the period, as forward Connor Sanvido hit the crossbar on the doorstep of Dinos goaltender Matt Greenfield.

Through 40 minutes, the Dinos led by one, and led the shot count by a 32-9 margin.

Five minutes into the final period, Dinos forward Regan Nagy doubled his teams lead. Robbie Fisher started the play with an outlet pass to linemate Josh Uhrich, who then set up Nagy alone in the slot, and he made no mistake going high glove past Hughson to make it 2-0.

That goal marked Nagy's second in as many games.

Lethbridge, desperately looking for some offensive, pulled Hughson with over five minutes to go.

Eventually, the Dinos were able to take advantage of the open cage, as forward Bradley Schoonbaert iced the game with 1:03 to go, capping off the win.

Next week, the Dinos, Pronghorns and the rest of Canada West will have a weekend bye. The Pronghorns will return to action November 9^th, hosting the Manitoba Bisons.
