Justin Thibault scored the game-winning overtime goal at 13:52, lifting the Chiefs over the Northern Cyclones, assisted by Jack Gricus.
The game was back-and-forth essentially from the point where the scoring started in the second. Ryan Stratton started it all at 5:28 of the second period, a 1-0 lead that the Chiefs enjoyed for more than seven minutes, which would later seem like a luxury. He was assisted by Justin Thibault.
At 12:40, Aidan Petroff scored his first of two goals in the game to tie the game, assisted by Loic Leduc and Thierry Lizotte. Lizotte put the Cyclones up to eventually end the second, scoring an unassisted goal.
The Cyclones enjoyed that lead for more than 13 minutes, before David VanIterson scored, with the assists going to Casey Johnson and Easton Swift at 6:46 of the third. Jake Stevens gave the Chiefs their second lead of the game, 3-2, at the 11:59 mark of the third. Anthony Sparo and Nolan Collison earned the assists.
Aidan Petroff scored his second goal, which would eventually lead to the overtime as he set it at 3-3 with an unassisted goal.
