The Calgary Wranglers got three goals from Rory Kerins and that was enough as they shut down the Coachella Valley Firebirds 3-1 Wednesday night in Palm Springs.
Kerins scored twice in the first period after Max Lajoie gave the Firebirds an early 1-0 advantage.
That remained the score throughout a scoreless second period until Kerins lit the lamp with his third of the night on a setup from Dryden Hunt. It was Kerins' first hat trick as a pro.
Devin Cooley shut down the Firebirds, making 39 saves in goal to get the win for the Wranglers.
Next up for Calgary is a Friday night clash in Nevada with the Henderson Silver Knights. Game time is 8 p.m.
