As they headed to Waywayseecappo, the Dauphin Kings needed some sort of momentum, and perhaps that momentum was built as they doubled up the Wolverines, 4-2 on Thanksgiving Sunday.
1st Period
The Kings opened up the scoring 0:53 in as Brendan Arnold who had quite the game scored his third of the season, with assists going to Riley Shamray and Jaymes Knee on the powerplay.
Under three minutes later, Brendan Arnold scored his second of the game that saw the Kings go up 2-0. The lone assist went to Riese Gaber and that's where the score stood after 20.
2nd Period
Wayde Johannesson cut the deficit in half for the Wolverines as he scored with under 30 seconds left in the second as the Kings led 2-1 after 40.
3rd Period
In the third, the Brendan Arnold show continued as he scored another goal with 1:10 left in the period via the empty net, and before that Riese Gaber scored his sixth of the season 12:22 into the third.
The Wolverines would score a goal of their own, but it wasn't enough as the Kings won their second game of the year.
