Raiders break Blades' brooms on way to moral victory
As per their Twitter page, the Saskatoon Blades brought their figurative brooms with them to the Brandt Centre in Regina, with the hopes of sweeping their bitter rivals in the Prince Albert Raiders in the season series. Instead, the Raiders snapped those brooms in half and threw them in a garbage can as they went on to bash the Blades 4-0 Thursday afternoon. Raiders goaltender Max Paddock made 20 saves to record his second shutout of the season. That’s the Raiders’ first victory of the season against the Blades, after the Blades won the first three meetings of the season.
