Hayden Seib was buzzing around all night long and you just had the feeling that he was going to come up clutch.
On Tuesday night as the Dauphin Kings opened up their preseason schedule with a match against the Northern Manitoba Blizzard, the Parkland star got the job done. Although the team did lose 3-2 in a shootout, Seib gave Dauphin a chance.
Trailing 2-0 in the third, Seib scored at the 5:18 mark and then scored his second of the evening just more than three minutes later. The two goals forced overtime and while no one found the back of the net in overtime, Seib did score one final time in the shootout.
Alexandre Andre and Ashton Dzeba scored twice for the Blizzard to give them the win.
The Kings will return to Credit Union Place on Thursday night when they welcome the Neepawa Titans to town and Dauphin will also play them in a bonus home game on Sunday at 4:00 p.m.
