Portland 7 Calgary 1

Mac Carruth made 37 saves to backstop the Portland Winterhawks to a 7-1 win over the Calgary Hitmen Tuesday night at Scotiabank Saddledome.

The Winterhawks built period leads of 1-0 and 2-0 before blowing the game open with a pair of goals in the first two minutes of the third period.

Victor Rask was the lone Hitmen to beat Carruth, scoring on a two man advantage just past the midway mark of the final frame.

The loss drops the Hitmen record to 4-6-0-1 while Portland improves to 7-5-1-1.

Flames first round pic Sven Bartschi sat out the game with an injury but he will be a guest on the Hitmen Hockey Hour this Saturday from 1-2pm on Sportsnet960 The Fan.
