It was a rough weekend road trip for the Coquitlam Express, who extended their losing streak to four games.
The club struggled Sunday night when they took on the Alberni Valley Bulldogs, losing 7-3 in front 1,036 fans at the Weyerhaeuser Arena.
After 40 minutes, the Express found themselves in a 5-0 hole before Charlie Barrow scored midway through the final frame. Two more goals off the sticks of Cameron Bertsch and Mitch Newsome rounded out Coquitlam’s scoring, but it was not enough to tip the game.
Twenty-four hours earlier the club’s scoring completely dried up in a bout against the Cowichan Valley Capitals, a match the Express lost 5-0. Coquitlam was also unsuccessful Friday night, when they fell 5-2 to Powell River.
The Express hope to get back to their winning ways once they return home tonight for a meeting against West Kelowna at the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex. Puck drop at 7 p.m.
