The Bandits played away this weekend on a trip up north and came home with four points. Friday night the boys were in Grande Prairie and came away with a 4-3 win. Bandits got off to a rocky start, heading into the 3rd down 3-1, but had a great comeback period.
Scoring for Brooks were Austin Plevy, Chase Clayton, Mark Logan and Jesse Pereira. Austin Plevy also had one assist along with Shane Bear, Kyler Nachtigall, Tanner Rhodes and Hayden Ursulak. Bandits power play seemed to be working better as they scored two power play goals. Plevy earned the game star and Josh Davies was in net to stop 21 shots.
Saturday night the Bandits were in Whitecourt taking on the Wolverines and won 4-1. They again scored on the power play 1 of 6 times. Adam Baughman, Chase Clayton, Kyler Nachtigall and Jesse Pereira with the goals and Jesse Baird, Madison Dunn, Jeff Malott, Charlie Marchand, Austin Plevy and Alex Roberts with the assists.
Despite being outshot, Michael Fredrick stopped 31 shots for the win and Jesse Baird earned the game star.
The Bandits penalty kill was top notch both games as they allowed no short-handed goals.
Next up an away game this Wednesday in Calgary against the Canucks, then finally back at home for two games this weekend.
