Bombers Win Third Straight-4-3 Over Bears

The Bomber Hockey Club continued their recent surge by winning for the third straight game 4-3 over the Bears. The win avenges the Bombers 5-2 loss to the Bears on opening day.

Strong defense, some highlight saves from goaltender Josh Burke and a balanced offensive attack proved to be the recipe for victory. The Bombers played as close to a full 45 minutes as they have in some time and didn't let questionable officiating take them out of their game as has been the case in the past.

Dave Bochner proved to be a jack of all trades by providing tenacious backchecking, scoring a break-away goal, and assisting on Bill Auld's game winning goal. Bomber defenseman Neil Van der horn commented "Dave looked like big Mario Lemeiux on his goal-holding off the Bear backchecker and roofing the shot!!"

RW Mike Rosenberg extended his goal scoring streak to 7 games in the victory.
