The Kodiaks had an outstanding game at home Nov. 28 against the Grandview Steelers, with a 3-2 win for the Kodiaks.

Kodiak Tyler Cannon got a short-handed breakaway in the second period which he neatly placed into Steelers’ keeper Cale Dolan’s net, to open the scoring. The Steelers responded less than a minute later to make it 1-1 at the start of the third period.

Kodiak Cobe Dean scored on a power play early in the third to take the lead, with assists from Schroeder and Padgham.

The Steelers evened it up a few minutes later, and the end-to-end action was some exciting hockey that period.

Kodiak Spink scored on the power play at 15:53, assisted by Horne and Castonguay.

The action stayed hot and heavy and the Steelers pulled their keeper for the man advantage but couldn’t keep the puck out of the Kodiaks’ defense and the game ended with the 3-2 win for the Kodiaks.

The Kodiaks outshot the Steelers 41-28 and scored twice on five power plays while the Steelers came up short on eight power plays.

The three top stars of the game were Kodiaks Cannon, Steelers’ Jack Hamilton and Kodiak Dean, respectively.
