Erik Gardiner tallied the only goal of the night for Regina, assists by Adam Brooks.

Raiders’ netminder Ian Scott played all 60 minutes for the first time in the pre-season and stopped 20 of 21 attempts.

The Pats goaltending duties were split between Jordan Hollett and Tyler Brown. Hollett made 20 saves on 21 shots, while Brown turned away 19 of 22 shots.

The Raiders outshot the Pats 43-21. Prince Albert went 3-for-6 on the power play, while Regina was 0-for-4.
