MELFORT, SK – For the second year in a row, the Melfort Mustangs are the Canterra Seeds Cup champions.
Zach Turner’s power-play one-timer on a neat feed from Ashton Paul at the 8:27 mark of the second period stood up as the winner, and Kristian Coombs earned his third shutout of the final in Melfort’s 3-0 Game 5 win over the Weyburn Red Wings.
Reilley Kotai scored his seventh of the post-season on a lovely wrister after he circled the top of the slot 4:47 into the third frame, and then Logan Belton sealed the win in the empty net.
Mustangs’ captain Ty Thornton was named the UPL Playoff MVP.
Highlights, presented by Chevrolet, to come tomorrow.
