Preds Take Bombers in Shootout

With the rare opportunity to don the Bomber Blues, the organization played a fought hard game with the pesky Predators on Monday evening. The Bombers were able to work on their penalty killing early on in the contest as Tim Tracy earned 3 consecutive penalties in the first period.  The Bombers escaped that stretch allowing only one Predator power play goal. Kyle Kappmeier provided the excitement in the third period netting a goal to tie the game at 4 with just over six minutes remaining.    Bill Auld, Tony D'anna and Jean Eric Hoyer provided the games other Bomber goals in regulation and with the game stalemated after 3 periods a shootout was needed to decide the winner.  The Predators had came up with some crafty shooting to win a game that might very well be a first round playoff matchup.
