Pats 3 Ice 2 SO

The Regina Pats kicked off their six-game west coast trip with a come-from-behind, shootout 3-2 victory over the Kootenay Ice in Cranbrook Friday night.

Kootenay jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first period and carried it into the second frame before Pats star Jordan Eberle cut Kootenay's lead to 2-1 with a powerplay goal.

Sophomore Pat Kyle Mulder tied the game at 2-2 at 14:48 of the third to send it to overtime. Nothing was solved there, so the teams went to a shootout.

Brett Leffler and Matt Strueby scored for the Queen City Kids in the shootout while Damien Ketlo only allowed one goal to preserve the victory.
