Warriors fell 2-1 to St. Thomas in an exhibition game tilt during the annual
SMBA Warrior day.
Despite outshooting the visitors 26-9, some stellar St. Thomas goaltending and a fortuitous bounce leading to a Stars power play goal turned out to be the difference in this one. Ben ten Hag had given the Warriors a brief second period lead when a Connor Loerzel point shot deflected off Erik Smith right to ten Hag on the doorstep of the St. Thomas goal. The Warriors continued their strong defensive game play again limiting the opposition to a single digit shot total.
