Lynden Lakovic scored just under three minutes into overtime in Game 6 for the Moose Jaw Warriors on Sunday, forcing a Game 7 against the Saskatoon Blades.
With a sharp-angle shot just under three minutes into overtime on Sunday, Moose Jaw Warriors forward Lynden Lakovic guaranteed one more game in what’s been an all-time classic series in the WHL ’s Eastern Conference Final.
“It just goes to show you what playoff hockey is all about,” said Lakovic. “Back and forth, this is the fifth game that’s gone to overtime, it shows that anything can happen. In a game like that you got to just throw it on net and hope something happens, and tonight it did.
Warriors goaltender Jackson Unger picked up the win with a 30-save performance on 33 shots against in Game 6, while Saskatoon netminder Evan Gardner allowed four goals on 35 shots in the Blades crease. “From my perspective I’m just focused on what we need to do next which is video, what we need to do better and come out with a desperation level to start Game 7,” said Sonne.
