North Stars deposit big win against Millionaires
The Battlefords North Stars defeated the Melville Millionaires 5-2 Saturday night in Melville to mark the team’s second-straight win by a 5-2 score in as many nights.
After just a single-goal first period that saw the home side open the scoring on Millionaire defenseman Sam De Melo’s third of the year, it was all North Stars come the second.
Following a performance last night against Yorkton that saw the Stars score four unanswered in the second frame, the Stars all but replicated the feat Saturday, scoring three goals in the middle period, including two while shorthanded.
MacGregor Sinclair was the first to break through for the Battlefords, scoring his 16th of the season, with the Millionaires on the man-advantage just a minute into the second to tie the game 1-1.
