Klippers lose a tight one to North Stars

The Klippers lost a close one 4-3 in North Battleford tonight, moving them to 1-2 on the pre-season. It was a hard-fought game by the sounds of it, with the teams trading one-goal leads all night.

Johnny Calkins, Andrew Dommett and Beau Taylor scored for the Klips. Calder Neufeld had two for the Stars along with singles from Kyle Hall and Nathan Tomac.

Both line-ups were laden heavily with veterans. The Calkins line dressed for the Klippers (obviously) along with the likes of King, Exner, Sonntag, Leedahl (his first action since that minor injury), Tabin and Flanagan.

Cody Thiel dressed again - pretty solid for a kid who was about to be cut before his performances on Sunday and Monday. It might not be kosher, but I'm officially rooting for this kid to make the team.
