**Highlights from Saturday night's victory are at the bottom of the story**
Have a night, Shane Smith!
Just four days shy of his 20th birthday, Smith had a career night in Portland to lead the Rockets to a 5-2 win over the Winterhawks.
Smith accounted for four of Kelowna’s five goals in what was a dominant night of special teams for the visitors.
Three of Smith’s four goals came on the powerplay, as did the only other Rocket goal of the night, which was Ty Halaburda’s first with the club.
Other notable Rockets performances included multi-assist nights for Mazden Leslie and Vojtech Cihar, while Harrison Boettiger made 30 saves in the victory.
After winning both games in Portland on the back of 87 total shots, the Rockets now return home to take on the Calgary Hitmen on Friday night.
