The Calgary Stallions edged the Lloydminster Athletics 6-4 in a back-and-forth Junior Prospects Hockey League contest that saw momentum swing wildly until the final minutes. The game opened with a quick exchange, as Cody Callison put the Stallions on the board early, only for Coen White to answer for the Athletics before the first period ended. The middle frame was a whirlwind, with Calgary's Kyson Trinh and Brady Baun scoring to build a two-goal lead, but Lloydminster’s Tay Mann responded just 26 seconds after Baun’s goal to keep his team within striking distance heading into the third.
The final period was where the game was ultimately decided. The Stallions exploded for three consecutive goals to seemingly put the game out of reach. Lucas Derdall capitalized on an empty net, Kyson Trinh netted his second of the game, and Brady Baun added a power-play marker to complete his own multi-goal effort and give Calgary a commanding 6-2 lead. The Athletics, to their credit, refused to go quietly. Hunter Anderson scored on the power play, and Coen White netted his second of the game to cut the deficit to two with under three minutes to play, but the late push ultimately fell short.
Calgary’s offensive depth was on full display, with Kyson Trinh and Brady Baun each recording multi-point nights, while Elliott Wilson and Cade Bouchard contributed two assists apiece. For Lloydminster, Jacksen Aultman and Tyler Mercredi each tallied two assists in the losing effort. Despite a valiant 38-shot performance by the Athletics, Stallions netminder Owen West was credited with the win, while Trycestan Loke shouldered the loss for Lloydminster in a game defined by its relentless offensive pace and a decisive third-period surge from the visitors.
