The Winterhawks' week began on a sour note, as they were thumped 5-2 at home on Monday by Spokane in what was the first of three meetings in one week between the two teams. Wednesday, they hit the road and lost 5-4 in a shootout at Spokane, which made it four losses in a row for the Winterhawks, though they did manage two points in that streak. On Friday, the Winterhawks found the win column again, this time, shutting out the Chiefs 3-0 behind a solid effort from Mac Carruth. On Saturday, the Winterhawks made it two shutouts in a row, as Oliver Bjorkstrand notched a hat trick and Brendan Burke played well in a 7-0 rout of Tri-City in Kennewick, WA. This coming week, the Winterhawks will have an equally tough task ahead, as they travel to Everett on Tuesday to conclude a Washington road trip, Kamloops comes to town on Wednesday for a game before the Winterhawks travel to Seattle on Friday and the week will conclude with a home game against a rapidly improving Spokane team.
