The Coquitlam Adanacs scoring woes were highlighted in a loss to the surging Burnaby Lakers Tuesday night.
The Adanacs, who are strong defensively but are second to last in the goals for category, sputtered in the Lakers’ end for much of the game.
Coquitlam briefly tied things up at the beginning of the middle frame, but quickly came unglued when the Lakers netted four goals in a row.
Two goals from Tyler Garrison and singles from Brian Gillis and Vincent Ricci were not enough and the team fell 8-4. The loss was the second in three games and if Coquitlam is looking to right the ship this weekend, the schedule is not in their favour.
The Victoria Shamrocks, who currently lead the Western Lacrosse Association and are on a six-game win streak, will be visiting the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex Saturday (face off is at 7 p.m.).
