KAMLOOPS — The Kamloops Blazers had their highest-scoring game of the season Friday night in a 12-3 win over the Tri-City Americans.

Tri-City, last in the U.S. Division, scored first, just 35 seconds in with Krystof Hrabik beating Rayce Ramsay.

The Blazers were quick to answer on Caedan Bankier’s second of the season.

They added four more later in the first. Zane Franklin on a power play, Brodi Stuart, Inaki Baragano, and Matthew Seminoff, all scored to make it 5-1 after the first.

The Blazers get goals from 11 different players, with sixteen of 18 skaters getting at least a point, in a 12-3 waltz over the Tri-City Americans.
