Stars take division lead with OT win over Hounds
The Battlefords North Stars closed out another perfect weekend showing with a huge 3-2 overtime victory over the Notre Dame Hounds to leapfrog the division-rival Klippers for top spot in the Global Ag. Risk Solutions Division with 56 points.
MacGregor Sinclair opened the scoring on the power play with a rocket of a shot, slinging one home from the high-slot to break the ice for his team, 1-0. The goal gave Sinclair sole possession of the team goal lead with his 19th of the campaign, to match his jersey number.
In the second, Owen Lamb would also score his 19th goal, giving his team an insurance marker at 2-0. Coming just 33 seconds into the middle period, Lamb’s goal would prove to be the only tally of the second frame.
Holding a 24-11 shot advantage and two-goal lead heading into the third, the game looked to be in full control, until in the final period, when the Hounds would strike quickly with two in a row.
