The Estevan Bruins scored a pair of third period goals to come from behind and beat the Yorkton Terriers 2-1 on Tuesday night, and now have a commanding 3-0 series lead in their Best-of-Seven SJHL Semi-Final.
After a scoreless first period, former Bruin Erik Boers opened the scoring for Yorkton on a second period powerplay, and it was 1-0 Terriers after forty minutes.
Eric Pearce replied on an Estevan powerplay 6:33 into the third period, and Mikol Sartor (1g-1a) potted the winner with 4:53 left on the clock, and the Bruins hung on the rest of the way. Boston Bilous made 28/29 saves to pick up the win, while Kael DePape stopped 23/25 at the other end.
The two teams take Wednesday night off to commemorate the 4th anniversary of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash. Game 4 goes Thursday in Yorkton. Flin Flon and Humboldt resume their series Friday and Saturday with Games 3 and 4 in Flin Flon. The Bombers lead that series 2-0.
