Game Summary
Wellington Dukes 2 - Pembroke Lumber Kings 5
MILLEY SCORES TWICE TO LEAD LUMBER KINGS TO FIRST WIN
CAMROSE, Alta. – Jonathan Milley scored twice in a span of 73 seconds early in the second period to turn a 1-0 lead into a 3-0 advantage as the Pembroke Lumber Kings earned their first win of the 2011 RBC Cup, 5-2 over the Wellington Dukes on Monday night.
The win was Pembroke’s second in three tries against teams from Ontario at the National Junior A Championship – the Lumber Kings beat the Aurora Tigers in 2007, but lost to the Thunder Bay Flyers in 1988.
Matthew Peca and Matthew Zay finished with a goal and an assist each for Pembroke (1-1), which also got a goal from Mitchell Gallant. Lumber Kings captain Ben Reinhardt had two helpers in the victory.
Cam Yuill scored both goals for Wellington (0-2), which outshot its opponent for the second night in a row – it held a 30-22 advantage over the Lumber Kings – but is still looking for its first victory.
After playing on back-to-back days both teams will enjoy a day off Tuesday before getting back to action on Wednesday. Wellington takes on first-place Vernon in the early game (3:30 p.m. MT), while Pembroke meets host Camrose in the nightcap (7:30 p.m. MT).
