Kohl Bauml scored two goals in the contest, including the game-winner in the third period.  Manraj Hayer notched the other Everett tally and Austin Lotz (12-14-1-1) turned in another solid goaltender effort with 40 saves as the Silvertips were outshot 42-22 by Prince George.  Penalty killing was another strong point for the ‘Tips, who killed all five Cougar advantages including a late 5-on-3 to finish out the win.

The Silvertips jumped out to the lead less than six minutes into the game during a 4-on-4 situation.  Ty Mappin rushed the puck down the left side and fed a pass across the slot to Kohl Bauml, who one-timed the puck past Brett Zarowny for his 16th goal of the year.  Prince George generated a few quality chances later in the period, but Austin Lotz was solid with 14 saves as Everett took a 1-0 advantage into the locker room.

The score remained through over half the second frame before Troy Bourke banged in the rebound of a Daniel Gibb shot to get the Cougars on the board at 12:34.  Prince George pulled ahead only 24 seconds later as Lotz kicked out a shot from the right boards only to see Rinalds Rosinskis blast the rebound into the top corner.  The Cougars outshot the Silvertips 16-8 in the second and led 2-1 after two periods.

Still down by one nearly midway through the third, Everett tied the game when Josh Winquist drew a defender to the boards and dished a pass in front to a wide-open Manraj Hayer, who scored from atop the goal crease to even things at two.  Just 1:13 after that, Bauml skated down the left boards and ripped a slapshot over Zarowny’s right shoulder and into the top corner to put the Silvertips back ahead at 3-2.  Two Everett penalties in the final minutes gave Prince George a late two-man advantage, but the ‘Tips hung on to ice the one-goal victory.

Brett Zarowny (9-12-0-0) stopped 19 shots while taking the loss in goal for the Cougars.  Everett finished the night 0 for 2 on the powerplay.
