The Estevan Bruins won their third straight game on Saturday with a 3-2 victory over the Melville Millionaires in the first game at Melville's Horizon Credit Union Centre.

The Estevan Bruins won their third straight game on Saturday with a 3-2 victory over the Melville Millionaires in the first game at Melville's Horizon Credit Union Centre.

Melville's Dustin Eberle scored the first goal in the new arena at 14:36 of the first period, but Calder Neufeld scored his SJHL-leading ninth goal late in the second to tie the game 1-1 after two periods.

The Bruins then got two goals in just over two minutes early in the third period, with Dylan Smith lighting the lamp 52 seconds in, followed by the eventual winner by Matt Dochylo.

Lucas Froese drew the Mils within one with 36 seconds left in the game, but that was as close as the home side would get.

Bruins goalie Steven Glass earned his second victory in as many nights, following Friday's 9-1 thrashing of the Notre Dame Hounds. Shots on goal were 35-34 for Melville.
