Game 17: Regina Force vs Kelowna Knights

This game started off with a quick penalty to start the game as John Luther heads off for the Knights for roughing. Just 41 seconds into the period, James Marushin tosses a sweet pass to Svensson as he taps it into the open cage to open up the scoring for the Force. Not even two minutes into this hockey game, the Force increase their lead to two goals as Tyler Guest puts a laser behind Lundgren for his third goal of the season. We go to the 5 minute mark and the Knights finally put one on the board as Mark Dymo does an excellent job protecting the puck behind the net and he ends up beating the Force goalie to the post for his second of the season, lead cut in half. Now 13 minutes into the first frame, the Force answer back as Bronsen Zerchai squeaks a shot through Lundgren to restore the two goal lead for the Force. With the period about to expire in this goal filled first frame, the Knights have an answer as Daniel Acker put one top shelf for his second of the season, Knights down by one goal heading into the second period.

5 minutes into the second frame, the Force regain that 2 goal lead as Bronsen Zerchai throws a weak shot at the net which fools Lundgren. Zerchai has his second of the game and sixth of the season. This would be the end of Lundgren's night as Aboud Chamas comes in for relief. Chamas night doesn't start too well as the first shot he faces is a laser from LaCouture as the Force take a three goal lead now. Just two minutes after that, Mo Lester skates into the zone and wires one on net that goes right through Chamas, now 6-2 Force. Granger would add another one near the end of the period to give the Force a 7-2 lead heading into the final frame.

10 minutes into this period, the Force had all the momentum until Damien Gionatti blocked the shot from LaCouture and he skates all the way down the ice and beats the Force goalie five hole to give the Knights some life, however, the Force were just too much to handle for the Knights as they lose this one by a final score of 7-3.
