The win snapped a six game losing streak for the Canes.
“I mean it’s a big relief,” said Hayden Pakkala, who scored a goal in the game.
“I think you can already feel it in the room and yeah we’re excited to just keep winning games and keep playing hard.”
The Canes were down three times in the game and battled back to win the in the later stages.
“I think we stayed composed throughout the whole game,” said Pakkala.
“We got down … a goal at a time and then found a way to bounce back.”
The Warriors opened the scoring when Rilen Kovacevic went down on a shorthanded breakaway and scored 3:45 into the game.
Pakkala tied the game 2:38 into the second period with his fifth of the year from Carsen Adair and Kooper Gizowski.
Moose Jaw made the score 2-1 when Pavel McKenzie roofed it over the shoulder of his former teammate Jackson Unger just under a minute later from Max Finley.
