Last Time Out
The Winterhawks struck early, as Alex Weiermair opened the scoring 1:31 in with a five-hole wrister on Raiden LeGall. Sam Spehar doubled the lead minutes later with a forced turnover and finish, but Everett answered shortly after through Matias Vanhanen.
The Silvertips tied it early in the second on a Nolan Chastko power-play goal before Portland responded on its own man advantage, with Ryan Miller setting up Nathan Free for his team-leading seventh power play goal. Moments later, Nathan Brown’s wrap-around found Jake Gustafson to push the lead to 4-2, though Everett’s Tarin Smith cut the gap before the break.
Everett pulled even again in the third with goals from Clarke Schaefer and Jesse Heslop, but the Heartattack Hawks lived up to their name. Spehar buried his fourth goal in 48 hours to tie the game, and Free’s lightning release off a faceoff put Portland up 6-5 with 1:06 left. Everett forced overtime with a late 6-on-4 equalizer.
After a scoreless OT, the shootout decided it. Spehar scored the lone tally, and Ondřej Štěbeták shut the door on all three Silvertips attempts as the Hawks claimed a wild 7-6 victory in Everett.
Wild Watch
The Winterhawks and Wild square off tonight for the third time this season and second of the weekend. Portland hosted Wenatchee on Friday, November 14, as the Hawks earned a commanding 6-3 win behind a multi-goal effort from Sam Spehar, first WHL goal for Aaron Zulinick, and tallies from Alex Weiermair, Jordan Duguay, and Jake Gustafson.
Despite sitting at the bottom of the league with just 12 points, Wenatchee maintains one of the WHL’s top penalty-kill units, operating at 83.3% and allowing only 14 goals on 84 short-handed situations.
