KENT, WASH. — Logan Edmonstone stopped all 40 shots he faced but the Kamloops Blazers fell 1-0 to the Seattle Thunderbirds in a shootout Friday (Dec. 19) night.

Seattle’s Marek Sklenicka finished with a 36 save shutout as both teams combined for 71 shots in regulation at the accesso ShoWare Center on the final day before the WHL’s holiday break.

The Thunderbirds then outshot the Blazers 5-0 in overtime but Edmonstone – who was named the third star on the night – was able to turn everything aside.

The 18-year-old Edmonstone was finally beaten in the shootout when Antonio Martorana and Brock England scored for Seattle. Both JP Hurlbert and Isa Guram were unable to get pucks past Sklenicka, who was named the game’s first star.

The 14-12-3-4 Blazers go into the WHL’s holiday break on a four-game losing streak. They’re also 0-4 in shootouts this season and sit sixth in the Western Conference with 35 points from 33 games. Seattle (13-14-2-1) sits in 11th place with 29 points from 30 games.
