Brayden Klimpke was a force at both ends of the ice for the Blades tonight. On defense, he was crisp on the breakout, making smart, quick decisions to advance the puck to his forwards. On one breakout, he executed a shoulder fake that sent the forechecker the wrong way before feeding a hard, accurate pass to his streaking center. Brayden had several quality pinches at the…

Dufour scored a nice goal getting to the net and burying home a rebound that was lying there for him. One of the best parts about this goal is how he was able to outmuscle a defender to the top of the crease and, under contact, win body position to be able to get a hold of a bouncing puck. He is one of the smaller players on the ice but this goal showed he does not back down from a scrum and is willing to get to the…

DuPont makes himself noticed in all areas of the ice. Landon did a lot of things well tonight but was highly efficient on Everett’s powerplay. Even though they did not score (0-2), Landon always seemed to make the correct play.
