Game 28:
Calgary Chinook 1 Dartmouth Lakers 4

Barkov injuries as the Chinook defeated by the Lakers 4-1

DARTMOUTH - Calgary Chinook centre Aleksander Barkov suffered a lower-body injury Sunday night against the Dartmouth Lakers and is considered day-to-day, the team announced. Chinook Head coach Eugene Yip said postgame that he's unsure if Barkov will be able to play Tuesday against the Gillam Shark. Eugene also added that he's
hopeful Barkov’s injury isn't long term and that "checked out" OK. The Chinook lost 4-1 to the Lakers in the shorthanded effort. The Lakers scored three goals in the 2nd period less than six minutes apart. Michael Frolik sparked a three-goal outburst in the second period, leading the
Lakers to a 4-1 victory. "The first period was a struggle to be honest with you," Frolik said. "I don't think we had too much early on but we kind of felt our groove as the middle of the game went on."

Richard Panik added the fourth goal late in the period when his shot from the boards deflected past Carey Price.

second period and it was Kris Letang netting the game-winning goal in the third period power play.
