MOORE'S FOUR GOAL NIGHT PACES OFFENSE IN 7-1 WIN OVER SEA WOLVES

COLUMBUS, GA - Kyle Moore’s four-goal night powered the Columbus River Dragons to a 7-1 win over the Mississippi Sea Wolves on Saturday night, extending the team’s franchise-record Tim Hortons win streak to 13 games.

Columbus came out firing in the game scoring five goals through the first two periods while only allowing the Sea Wolves a total of 10 shots over the opening 40 minutes of play. Mississippi would get one back on the power play in the third period, but the River Dragons score a pair of goals late to ice the win.

The line of Moore (4g), Justin MacDonald (3a) and Ryan Hunter (1g, 3a) led the way offensively while Columbus played a complete game defensively, keeping the normally-explosive Sea Wolves to just one goal and 19 total shots.

Notes:

• Justin MacDonald continues his league-record scoring streak, which has now reached 23 games. MacDonald has a point in every contest going back to December 1 and over that stretch has 17 goals and 34 assists for 51 points.

• Kyle Moore’s scoring streak has now reached 12 games and includes 11 goals and 18 assists for 29 points along the way.

• Ryan Hunter’s four-point night tied his career best set earlier this season on December 9 against Mississippi.

• Columbus put up 20-or-more shots in five out of six periods this weekend, including a season-high 64 on Friday night.
