Dejected and filled with doubts following an opening 8-3 loss to the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League champion Quebec Remparts on Friday night, the host Kamloops Blazers regrouped and vowed to take care of business Sunday against the Peterborough Petes.The Blazers jumped on the Ontario Hockey League champion Petes early and often en route to a 10-2 victory that included four power-play goals, improving their record to 1-1 in the four-team, 10-day championship tournament at the Sandman Centre.
The Petes, 6-3 losers to the Western Hockey League champion Seattle Thunderbirds on Saturday, said they needed to be more physical and aggressive against the Blazers, but found themselves down by three goals before the first period was 14-minutes-old. A fourth Kamloops goal was waved off for goaltender interference.
Logan Stankoven had a goal and four assists for the Blazers, while Connor Levis had a goal and two assists. Ryan Michael, Fraser Minten, Ashton Ferster, Matthew Seminoff, Dylan Sydor, Jakub Demek, Matthew Seminoff and Ryan Hofer scored singles.Avery Hayes scored a power-play goal for the Petes, and Quinton Page scored with 20 seconds left in the game. The Petes were outshot 49-30.
Stankoven was thrilled that the “real Blazers” showed up Sunday after a disappointing start against Quebec.
