Tough night in Saskatoon for Pronghorns

SASKATOON – Riding a three game winning streak heading into the weekend, the Lethbridge Pronghorns men's hockey team had that streak rudely snapped on the road, dropping a decisive decision to the Saskatchewan Huskies, 5-0 in Saskatoon
 
It was a dominant performance by Saskatchewan who outshot the Pronghorns 40-18 on the night, as they moved to 8-1 on home ice against Lethbridge since the 2014-15 season.
 
Carter Folk opened the scoring for the Huskies, while Carson Stadnyk marked his first multi-goal regular-season game since Jan. 4, 2019, with a two-goal performance. Logan McVeigh and Shane Collins also found the back of the net in the win.
 
Cody Spagrud picked up the first point of his U SPORTS career with a first period assist. Gordie Ballhorn, Collin Shirley and Evan Fiala each picked up a pair of helpers, while Wyatt Johnson also chipped in with an assist.
 
After stopping 34 of 37 shots against the Alberta Golden Bears in last Saturday night's overtime loss, Taran Kozun was solid once again between the pipes for the Huskies. The 2018-19 U SPORTS Goalie of the Year registered his first shutout of the season with an 18-save performance.
 
Pronghorns goaltender Taz Burman allowed three goals on 19 shots before being pulled in the second period. Former Saskatoon Blades netminder Nikolas Amundrud kicked aside 22 of 24 shots in relief.
 
The win is the Huskies first of the season, and with points in back-to-back games, they now sit with a 1-3-1 record through five games. Meanwhile, with the loss, Lethbridge moves to 3-2 on the season.
 
Saskatchewan and Lethbridge will take the ice for the second time in as many days tomorrow at 4:00 p.m. at Merlis Belsher Place.
 
All of that action can be watched live on Canada West TV presented by Co-op.
