Blazers drop opener of long road trip in Regina

Dec 9, 2023 | 6:53 AM

REGINA, SASK — The Kamloops Blazers found themselves on the wrong end of a 10 goal barn-burner in Regina, Saskatchewan Friday (Dec. 8) night.

The Pats jumped out to a 1-0 lead after the opening 20 minutes curtesy of Logan Peskett’s third of the season. Goals would then come quick and often in a wild middle stanza. The Blazers got goals from Andrew Thomson, and Jordan Keller, but still trailed 4-2 after two.

Kamloops would make things interesting in the third with a pair of markers from Connor Levis, and his second of the night from Keller, but ultimately fell 6-4.

The Blazers’ road trip rolls on into Brandon Manitoba tonight to duel the Wheat Kings.
