Sunday notes . . .

Fines and suspensions will be forthcoming after Sunday’s action included two line brawls, or multiple-fight situations as the WHL prefers they be called. In Regina, the Pats and Saskatoon Blades dropped the mitts in the middle of the second period, the fourth time this season each of those teams has participated in a line brawl. In Kamloops, the Blazers and Lethbridge Hurricanes went at it late in the third period. . . . Here’s a look at fines paid by teams this season, showing number of fines and total amount paid:
Regina 3/$1,000
Portland 3/$750
Edmonton 2/$750
Saskatoon 2/$750
Spokane 2/$500
Brandon 1/$250
Chilliwack 1/$250
Medicine Hat 1/$250
Moose Jaw 1/$250
Prince George 1/$250
Seattle 1/$250
(Notes: Portland, Spokane and Seattle have been fined because of battling goaltenders; Saskatoon and Moose Jaw got dinged for warmup violations.)

SUNDAY’S HIGHLIGHTS:
In Regina, the Pats blew a 4-1 lead before beating the Saskatoon Blades 5-4 on an OT goal by C Scott Doucet. . . . He counted 1:52 into extra time. . . . Doucet also scored the OT winner Friday when the Pats won 3-2 in Medicine Hat. . . . The Pats (33-15-3-2) are 9-0-2-1 in their last 12 games. Eleven of those games were played against teams with winning records. . . . The Blades (17-28-3-2) have lost three in a row. . . . C Jordan Eberle’s 31st goal at 8:10 of the second period gave Regina a 4-1 lead. . . . D Stefan Elliott, LW Darian Dziurzynski and LW Ondrej Fiala scored to tie it. Fiala’s goal, at 17:34 of the third period, forced the OT. . . . D Derek Hulak drew three assists for the Blades. . . . The WHL office will get involved in this one due to a multi-fight situation that developed in the second period. While that was going on, Regina GM Brent Parker paid a visit in the press box to Brad Howard, one of the WHL’s supervisors of officials. . . . Regina lost D Colton Teubert to his fourth game misconduct, which should bring with it a two-game suspension. . . . This was the fourth line brawl of the season for both teams, meaning head coaches Curtis Hunt of Regina and Lorne Molleken of Saskatoon are likely to get one-game suspensions. . . . The Blades return to Regina on Friday. . . . Get your tickets now. . . .

In Calgary, C Brock Nixon scored four times to help the Hitmen to a 9-2 victory over the Brandon Wheat Kings. . . .
