The Dauphin Kings salvaged their weekend and earned two important points on Sunday night.
Wrapping up a stretch that saw the team play 13 games in 24 days, the Kings downed the Winnipeg Blues, 4-2, to earn their 32nd win of the season. They moved eight points ahead of the Northern Manitoba Blizzard for first place in the MGEU West Division, the Blizzard do have a game in hand.
The Kings racked up 44 shots in the game while Bryson Yaschyshyn made 22 saves to get back in the win column, one night after he played very well in an overtime loss against the Niverville Nighthawks.
Rylan Gage (15), Matthew Haun (7), Josh Schmidt (6), and Gavin Nemis (12) did the scoring for Dauphin as they earned three of a possible six points this weekend.
The team will return to Dauphin to prepare for a big matchup with the Neepawa Titans on Friday night. You can hear that game on Friday beginning with the Parkland Source for Sports pregame show with Darnell Duff and Jeff Henson starting at 7:20.
