Saskatoon 6 Calgary 0

Andrey Makarov made 42 saves to record his second shutout in as many games against Calgary in a 6-0 Saskatoon Blades win over the Hitmen Friday night at Credit Union Centre.

After Saskatoon built a 1-0 first period lead on a goal from Josh Nicholls the turning point came in the second period.  Calgary failed to score on a 5-on-3 powerplay for 69 seconds and Pavlo Padakin missed on a shorthanded breakaway.  Moments later Nathan Burns made it 2-0 Blades and Saskatoon never looked back.

Calgary, 33-15-1-3, has now lost two in a row and five of their last six games on the road.
