The Waywayseecappo Wolverines erupted for four goals in the third period Tuesday night to secure a 5-2 preseason victory over the Melville Millionaires at the CN Community Centre.
Following a scoreless opening period, Treycen Wuttunee broke the deadlock just 1:48 into the second. Noah Oughton and Mikey Thomas collected the assists as the Wolverines carried a 1-0 advantage into the intermission.
Hudson Davidson doubled the lead early in the third period, after a rebound on the powerplay. Davidson struck again six minutes later for his second of the night with a flukey goal, putting Waywayseecappo ahead 3-0.
Blake Farthing extended the lead at 11:34, with Isaac Catcheway and Henry Thunderblanket picking up the assists. Melville responded with a pair of late goals from Kale Margolis, but the Wolverines held firm before Ryden Duchon added a shorthanded empty netter to complete the 5-2 victory.
Urijah Moosetail delivered a strong performance in the Waywayseecappo crease, while Davidson led the offence with two goals and Oughton contributed two assists.
The Wolverines and Millionaires will complete their preseason home-and-home Wednesday night at the Waywayseecappo Arena Complex.
