Rockets shutout Chilliwack

Published: November 07, 2009 1:00 AM

The Kelowna Rockets defeated the Chilliwack Bruins 3-0 Friday night in front of a sellout crowd of 6,119 fans at Prospera Place in Kelowna.

Adam Brown made 23 saves for the shutout while Brandon McMillan's first period goal stood up as the winner.

McMillan wired a slap shot into the top corner on a 5-on-3 power play to get the Rockets rolling. Kyle St. Denis added a power play marker in the second period before Mitchell Callahan scored an empty netter in the third period.

The win gives the Rockets a 10-7-1-0 record heading to Kamloops for a battle on Saturday night.
