GAME RECAP: Banged-up Silvertips drop 6-3 contest to Calgary

EVERETT, Wash. — A furious comeback effort by the Calgary Hitmen in the third period led to a 6-3 Calgary victory against a shorthanded Silvertips squad in Everett Sunday night.

Steel Quiring opened the scoring against his former club with a rebound goal at 9:28 in the first period. Ethan Moore would bring the game to even seven minutes into the second period, though Vincent Lamanna fielded a cross-slot pass from Austin Roest on the powerplay and contributed his second goal of the season.

Billal Noori knotted the game once more with his third goal of the season at 10:50, but Everett again grabbed their third lead of the game at 14:25 as Roest set up Ben Hemmerling for his seventh tally of the year.
