The Prince Albert Raiders spoiled the annual Teddy Bear Toss night in Calgary on Sunday as they knocked off the Hitmen 5-2.

Teddy bears were tossed on to Saddledome ice after the Hitmen tied the game at 1–1 in the first period. Following a lengthy delay to clean up the stuffed animals, the Raiders re-took the lead at 2-1 and went on to pick up the victory.

Raiders forward Hayden Pakkala had three assists, Arizona Coyotes prospect Terrell Goldsmith had a goal and an assist, and goaltender Max Hildebrand made 44 saves.

The Raiders went 2-1 on the road this weekend and now return to Prince Albert for four home games leading into the Christmas break.
