Regiment win overtime thriller on the road
The Newfoundland Regiment are coming home on a high note thanks to a 4-3 overtime win over the Saint John Sea Dogs on Sunday afternoon.
Down 2-0 midway through the game, Marek Danicek gave the Regiment a lifeline as he cut it to 2-1 with 10:26 to go in the second period. Less than two minutes later, Danicek had his second and got Newfoundland back to level with a highlight reel solo effort, making it a 2-2 contest after 40 minutes.
Dominic Pilote gave Newfoundland their first lead of the afternoon three minutes into the third period before Angelo Fullerton replied for Saint John with 5:51 left in regulation as his 3-3 goal forced overtime.
Luckily for the Regiment, Danicek would have the last laugh as he completed his hat-trick just 40 seconds into the overtime frame to secure a big 4-3 victory for Newfoundland.
Louis-Antoine Denault was phenomenal in goal for Newfoundland as he earned first star on the road with a 36 save performance, improving to 5-1-0-0 since coming over from Quebec last month.
The Regiment now head back home for their next four games starting on Thursday night when they welcome the Rimouski Oceanic to town.
