Canadiens lose to Norwest for second time

Posted by Lincoln Galbraith on Jan 29 2002 at 04:00PM PST in 2018-2019
For the second time this season, the Fort William Canadiens fell to the Norwest Stars juvenile team 5-2.  The Canadiens (6-9-3) sit in fourth place among the Midget 'AA' teams, 4 points ahead of the idle Volunteer Pool Bearcats.

The Canadiens fell behind early, with Norwest scoring two first period powerplay goals.  Derek Wark and Kyle Oikonen were the goal scorers.

After Willie Mitchell made it 3-0, Chris Kovac scored on a breakaway to make it 3-1 at the second intermission.  It was Kovac's 11th of the season and ninth point in the past six games.

The Canadiens made it 3-2 when Brad McLean's point shot on the powerplay found the back of the net for his first of the season.  Micheal Dawd then scored two consecutive goals to finish the game for Norwest.

The Canadiens finished the night 1-3 on the powerplay while Norwest was 2-3.

Drew Strandberg took the loss while Jesse Fisher snagged the win.

Notes: The Canadiens played without Jordan Buckley (second game of two game suspension) and Jesse Friday; Kovac's point streak is the second longest of the season behind Terry Zaroski's streak of 11 points (9G, 2A) in eight games; The Canadiens play the Fort William Hurricanes on Tuesday and then have their final meeting of the year with the Norwest Stars on Thursday.
