SPOKANE, WAS. — The Kamloops Blazers only played one game on the weekend, dropping a 3-2 shootout decision in Spokane Sunday (Nov. 19).

Kamloops got goals from Andrew Thomson and Emmitt Finnie, taking a 2-1 lead into the third period.

But the Chiefs’ Conner Roulette scored his 16th of the season early in the third period to tie the game at 2-2.

Overtime solved nothing and the Chiefs’ Chase Bertholet scored the only shootout goal to give Spokane the extra point.
