SPOKANE - Four consecutive goals from four different players helped the Spokane Chiefs defeat the Calgary Hitmen 4-3 in Western Hockey League play Wednesday night in front of 3,533 at the Spokane Arena.

Calgary took a 1-0 lead after the first period and a goal from Cody Sylvester gave the Hitmen a 2-0 lead 1:59 into the second period.

Dylan Walchuk started the rally with a goal midway through the second. Less than two minutes later Brenden Kichton followed with a 5-on-3 power-play goal and Carter Proft gave the Chiefs (33-22-2-0, 68 points) their first lead of the game with his seventh goal of the season with 1:11 remaining in the period.

Todd Fiddler scored the eventual game-winner midway through the third. The goal was his team-leading 37th of the season (and third most in the WHL).

Chirs Driedger made 32 saves for Calgary and Eric Williams turned away 31 shots for the Chiefs, who play at Everett on Friday night.
