Nick Baptiste scored a power play goal and added two assists Monday as
Sudbury lost to HPK 4-3 at the Junior Club World Cup in Omsk, Russia.
Sudbury
outshot the Finnish squad by a 33-20 margin, with all three of Baptiste’s points coming in the third period as the
Wolves rallied to tie the game. The effort would fall short though, with HPK
notching the game winner with just 45 seconds left in regulation. The defending
champion Wolves, who dropped to 0-2 in round robin play, will look for their
first win of the preseason Wednesday when they take on Swedish club Frolunda.
