It was a first period to forget.
But you can certainly remember the final score. The Dauphin Kings rebounded from a terrible first period and downed the Niverville Nighthawks, 4-2, on Saturday night at Credit Union Place. Dauphin was outshot 24-5 in the first period and trailed 1-0.
After a scoreless second period, Dauphin caught fire in the third as they scored four times to lock up their 34th win of the season and what a win it was. With the victory, Dauphin remains six points ahead of the Northern Manitoba Blizzard for first place in the West Division.
Rylan Gage, Ty Pratte, Josh Schmidt, and Gavin Nemis scored for Dauphin in the game while Cole Sheffield was incredible. He made 38 saves in the victory.
Dauphin welcomes Northern Manitoba to town on Tuesday night for a massive tilt.
