ABERDEEN, SD (AberdeenWings.com) – The Aberdeen Wings hosted the Watertown Shamrocks in a Pre-Thanksgiving midweek game where Willum Braun got his first 31-save shutout of the season, and Augustana commit Leonid Bulgakov recorded a hat trick!
Although there were plenty of good scoring chances for both teams in the first period, there would be no goals to be recorded.
Scoring in the second would start at the 1:39 mark when Leonid Bulgakov would find the back of the net getting help from Nick Comfort and Cole Saterdalen. This would be the only goal of the second period, and the score would be 1-0 in favor of the Wings.
In the third period, it would be Leonid Bulgakov again who would get the scoring underway when just 35 seconds in, with help from Brady Estabrook and Sebastian Lillsund, he would score again. After back and forth attempts from both teams, Watertown would pull their goaltender with two minutes left to play. Then, Leo Bulgakov again would fire from the Wings end, and score into the empty net leaving the score 3-0 securing the Wings win.
Willum Braun was in net for the Wings, stopping all 31 shots sent his way.
Three stars of the game were Nick Comfort (1 assist), Leo Bulgakov (3 goals), and Willum Braun (31 save shutout).
