Jarvis hat trick leads Winterhawks to 6-3 win: Seth Jarvis scored a hat trick for Portland’s final three goals of the game, as the Portland Winterhawks beat the Seattle Thunderbirds 6-3 Saturday night at Memorial Coliseum.
Why the Winterhawks won: A big game for Jarvis, a breakout game, hopefully, in a way. It was his third career hat trick, and his second multi-goal game of the season in 15 games, after having 10 in 58 games last season. He and Jaydon Dureau, who combined for a strong first 2 periods last Sunday without reward, got the reward Saturday.
Why the Winterhawks won: The power play. A power play that improbably was near the bottom of the league went 3 for 7. Closely related to Jarvis, who got two of the three goals. Mason Mannek on the power play’s second unit got the other.
Why the Thunderbirds lost: Missing too many players. Their usual starter, Thomas Milic, is at the World U-18 tournament, and didn’t get the best goaltending. They missed their best player Conner Roulette, to the same tournament, as well as top forwards Payton Mount and Matthew Rempe, who are injured. And a surprise scratch before the game was defenseman Cade McNelly, who although listed in the box score didn’t play and isn’t expected to play tomorrow. He could have given them some help on the penalty kill and dealing with Jarvis and Dureau.
What it means: With Seattle missing so many players, the Winterhawks should be favored to hold off the Thunderbirds for 2nd place, and this win put them 3 points ahead in that race. A win Sunday would really turn the screws.
