Playing in his 50th career game with the Petrolia Squires, Jakob Knowles turned away 31 shots for his third career shutout to lead Petrolia to a 3-0 win over Seaforth in the Squires’ home opener last Friday night at Greenwood.
Former Petrolia Flyer Noah Harse scored a power play goal early in the first period – his first as a Squire – and Petrolia nursed that 1-0 lead until Carson Perry and Isaac McLean scored in the third, adding to the lead with two additional points.
Petrolia continues its season with a home game against the Milverton Wheels at Greenwood Friday night. Puck drop is
8:30 p.m.
The Squires wrap up the weekend with their first road game of the season against the Tavistock Royals on Saturday night.
