Ryan Ouelette continued his unflappable play in Yorkton’s net since returning to the Terriers about 10 days ago, making 25 saves for the shutout in the Terriers’ 4-0 win over Weyburn on Wednesday night.
Ouelette has stopped 105 of the 108 shots he’s faced in three games since coming back from the NAHL, good for a 3-0 record, 1.00 GAA, and a .972 save percentage. As a team, the Terriers (9-9-0-0) have now won four straight games as they’re back to .500, getting some cushion over their Viterra Division opponents.
Alec Zawatsky scored twice on Wednesday, while Riley Egan and Tyson Janzen notched the others.
Noah Decottignies made 23/27 saves in goal for the Red Wings (7-10-0-1).
