The Drumheller Dragons travelled to Camrose to face the Kodiaks Sunday afternoon, but the Dragons couldn’t get past the Kodiaks who won the game 4-2.
Marcus Messier opened scoring for the Dragons, on the power play, tying the game with nine seconds left in the first period. The Kodiaks brought the score to 2-1 in the second period before the Dragons’ Keaton Holinaty tied it again in the third, but that was the last goal for the Dragons of the afternoon. Camrose scored a short handed goal just over half way through the third and then an empty net goal with 25 seconds left to bring the score to 4-2. Affiliate goaltender Xavier Burghardt was in net for the Dragons.
The Dragons will now travel north, first to Fort McMurray to face the Oil Barons on Saturday January 24, and then to Bonnyville to face the Pontiacs on Sunday afternoon before returning home Friday January 30 to play the first of two back-to-back games against the Olds Grizzlys. Game time on January 30 at Memorial Arena is 7:30 p.m.
