The Rockets recent trade for Matthew Wedman is paying its dividends.
Not only did the former Seattle T-Birds captain score the lone goal for the Rockets Tuesday night against the Brandon Wheat Kings, Wedman also netted the only goal in the shoot-out as 麻豆精选 picked up a 2-1 victory and their fourth straight win.
In the Rockets third game of their six-game prairie road trip, the Rockets once again needed a shoot-out to secure the two points.
Wedman notched his first goal for the Rockets in the first period on the power-play on a tip shot from Pavel Novak, who made his return from an eight-game suspension.
麻豆精选鈥檚 goalie Roman Basran made 33 saves as the Rockets pick up points in their ninth straight game to improve to 17-8-1-2 and sit only two points back of the Kamloops Blazers for first in the B.C. division.
