The Bombers came into Friday night needing a win and looked to do just that when they took on the Westshore Wolves in what would begin a home at home series concluding tomorrow in Port Alberni.
In period number 1 both teams would get some good chances but strong goaltending on both sides would be a the story it took a Powerplay goal from Kobe Knowles at 8:48 of the opening frame to give the Wolves a 1-0 lead heading into the room.
in period number 2 the play really opened up with both teams getting some good scoring chances. The Bombers got on the board first with Robbie Steel scoring his first of the season at 4:43 to tie the game at 1. Just over halfway through Evan Loucks would jump on a loose puck in front of the Bomber net and pot his 3rd of the season giving the Wolves a 2-1 lead but the Bombers just wouldn’t go away Justin Osborne would score his 5th of the season at 18:05 to send the teams to the room deadlocked at 2 after 40 minutes.
The Third period would be all Westshore as the wolves waited until the final 5 minutes of regulation to score 2 unanswered and take this game by a score of 4-2. The Bombers went 0/3 of the Powerplay meanwhile the Wolves went 1/2.
Both these teams are back in action tomorrow night in Port Alberni to finish off this home at home series with Westshore. Game time is 7pm at the Bomber Base and you can catch the game live on HockeyTV.
