Darren Kramer and Pat Rowan each scored three goals and added four assists as the hometown Falher Pirates routed the winless High Prairie Regals 12-3 Thursday night.
HP started well, scoring two short-handed goals in 14 seconds off the sticks of Mitch Price and Ira Gladue in the third minute, after Tyrel Laderoute was given an interference minor. The Regals led 2-0.
After, that it was all downhill. FAL rattled off five straight goals and led 5-2; it was 5-3 after one period.
FAL added four unanswered goals in the second period and three more in the third.
Darren Brohcu added two goals for FAL, while singles came from Dallas Brochu – he also added four assists – Jeff Chalifoux, Kevin Monfette and Coltin Sandboe.
Brandon McNabb scored HP’s other goal on a late first period power play as HP went 1-for-7 on the PP.
Kramer and Monfette scored PPGs for FAL, who were successful in two of eight chances.
FAL has now won all four meetings with HP this season, 12-3 and 6-5 at home and 10-4 and 7-4 in HP.
FAL has won 16 straight over HP in FAL since Dec. 18, 2010 and each game has been by at least three goals, except the earlier game this season. Twelve of the 16 wins have been by at least five goals.
FAL [9-3-0-1] now leads second place Grimshaw by eight points in the East Division, while HP remains winless at 0-11-1-1.
