The weekend kicked off Dec. 14 with a home game at the Centennial Civic Centre against the Knights of Columbus (KC) Squires.
The game kicked off to a scoreless first period with each team putting 15 shots on net. It wouldn’t be long into the second when KC found the back of the net twice.
A few minutes after the Lancers would return the favour burying two within a minute of each other.
Unfortunately for the Lancers and the home crowd, KC put another one away before the second period ended. They buried one more power-play goal in the third to best the Lancers 4-2.
The Lancers hit the road ready to take on the Fort Saskatchewan Rangers at the Dow Centennial Centre.
The visiting Lancers were ready as they scored twice in the first period of play. The Rangers were ready to answer back in the second tying the game two all. With a few minutes left before the second period ends, the Lancers found the back of the net one more time giving them the lead heading into the last period.
The Lancers came out blazing scoring twice in under two minutes and putting in a third before the Rangers answered back. For good measure the Lancers scored on a power play sealing the deal with a 7-3 win.
