Stars and Bombers explode for seven goals, nearly 160 penalty minutes
The Battlefords North Stars fell 5-2 Friday night to the Flin Flon Bombers at the Whitney Forum in Flin Flon.
Chrystopher Collin opened the scoring with his 15th of the year, converting on a two-on-one with Cade Kowalski that saw the forward Collin receive a pass just in front of the Stars’ goal in time to tap the puck home to break the scoreless tie, 1-0 Bombers.
The initial celebration would be short-lived however, as the North Stars would answer back just 24 seconds later, courtesy of a shorthanded goal by Braydon Buziak. Charging in on the penalty kill, Buziak fired the puck home for his 13th of the campaign to knot things up, 1-1.
The game remained tied until Chrystopher Collin’s second of the night, coming on the power play from Cade Kowalski and Brandson Hein, for his 16th of the year.
