Border Bruins take game 1 in Mowat Cup

The Border Bruins’ special teams were key to their Game 1 victory in the Mowat Cup against the Ridge Meadows Flames.

They went 2-for-4 on the power-play, and the penalty-kill was perfect – 3-for-3.

Thomas Clarke backhanded the winning goal past Matthew Candusso five-hole with 7:22 remaining in regulation time.

Also scoring for the Border Bruins was Tyler Burke, who opened the scoring, and KIJHL MVP Levi Astill, who tied the game with a laser wrist shot high past Candusso’s blocker.

He finished with 35 saves on 38 shots.

Border Bruins goalie Jasper Tait wasn’t busy, but was good when needed and saved 19 of 21 shots. He allowed goals to Jonah Power Smith and Nolan Bowsher.

The teams will meet for game 2 tonight in Langley at 7pm.
