After losing the first two games of their first round playoff series, the Calgary Hitmen were in tough. But after a pair of big home wins over the Lethbridge Hurricanes, they’re very much in the thick of things.
Game 3: Calgary wins 5-3
The Hitmen got a lead in the first period and never gave it up, despite the Hurricanes’ best efforts at a third period comeback. Ryder Korczak, Carson Focht and Josh Prokop spotted the Hitmen to a 3-0 lead before Lethbridge made a game of things in the second half.
Focht added a second goal that stood up as the game winner and Luke Coleman added an empty netter, while 2019 NHL Draft top prospect Dylan Cozens had a pair for the Hurricanes in the loss.
