Jan. 31—FOREST LAKE — The power play was a strength for Forest Lake Saturday afternoon against the Bemidji High School boys hockey team, going 3-for-4.

Even strength, not so much.

Despite their penalty kill woes, the Lumberjacks defeated the Rangers 6-3 off the back of Taveon Welle's hat trick.

The Jacks would jump out to a 2-0 lead after first period goals from Quinn Niemi and Welle. After the Rangers scored two power play goals in the first minute and a half of the second period to tie it, Welle would score another for his second of the game, leading 3-2.

Welle and Nathan Valley would assist a Griffin Dewar power play goal late in the second period to enter the final frame up 4-2.

Welle would get his hat trick five minutes in the the third period. Forest Lake would score another power play goal to make it 5-3, but Dewar would score an insurance goal with less than three minutes remaining to clinch the 6-3 win for the Jacks.

Christian Hill made 18 saves for BHS.
