Broncos' 15-year-old Defenseman Dillon Heatherington scored twice, and then added the shootout winner for a Team Black 5-4 win in last night's intra-squad game at the Credit Union iplex.
Heatherington, the Broncos' 1st-round Bantam pick selection from this summer's WHL Bantam draft, admits he was nervous. "The first few shifts, I was shaking; I needed to settle down. I stopped a one-on-one play, and then really just settled in."
Heatherington scored the tying goal for Team Black in the final minute on a screened slapshot from the left point. Shea Howorko also had a Team Black goal.
Reece Scarlett, Nicco DiGiovannantonio, Jordan Peddle, and Brandon Bruce scored for Team White in the loss.
The Broncos sat eight veterans to get a better look at some of their younger prospects.
