It took no luck of the Irish, but rather skill and determination for Michael McChesney and the Power Dodge Estevan Bruins to win 3-2 take a 2-0 series lead over the Kinderlsey Klippers on St. Patrick’s Day at Affinity Place.
McChesney took a stick to the face later in the first period, necessitating a double minor to the Klippers. He would score early in the second period on the power play and then also in the last minute of that period with the man advantage as well.
Zach Goberis also scored for the Bruins, who fired 34 shots at Justen Close in the Kindersley net. Bo Didur stopped 25 of 27 shots in the Estevan net for the victory.
Games 3 and 4 in the best-of-seven series are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday in Kindersley. Game 5, if necessary will be Friday night at Affinity Place.
