Heikkila blanks Hawks to even Jr. B final

March 20--Kelly Heikkila stopped all 22 shots he faced backstopping the K&A Wolverines to 5-0 shutout win over the Northern Hawks Thursday in game two of the Thunder Bay Jr. B/Juvenile/AAA Hockey League championship series played at the Tournament Centre.

David Renzi got the eventual game-winner six minutes into this one finishing off the work of Aaron Bruno.

A pair of power play markers midway through the second period added some insurance for the Wolverines as Justin Backor and Adrian Cordes both beat Cody Pelletier in the Hawks net just 32 seconds apart.

Sean Spenrath then added an unassisted goal to make it 4-0 K&A after 40 minutes.

Bruno then completed the scoring on the night at 4:30 of the final frame.

The Wolverines fired 41 shots on Pelletier in the contest as the 8-point final is now tied at two points apiece with game three going Tuesday back at the Tournament Centre. The action gets underway there at 8 p.m.
