Game Recap: Tanner Lam Hat Trick Powers Rangers To 7-4 Victory Over Attack
Owen Sound, Ont. – Tanner Lam and Jack Pridham each recorded three point nights on route to a 7-4 victory over the Owen Sound Attack. Lam recorded his second career OHL hat trick to earn the games first star. The Rangers were dominant in the game recording nearly 50 shots on net, but the Attack kept the game close, not allowing the Rangers to lead by more than two goals until the final minute of the game.
Sam O’Reilly and Gabriel Chiarot both recorded their first goals in a Kitchener Rangers uniform – O’Reilly’s coming short handed and Chiarot’s coming with the Attack net empty. Pridham scored his 24th and 25th goals of the season and is now only two goals shy of his total from a season ago (27) in ten less games.
