The CanElson Drilling Estevan Bruins let a point slipped away from them last night as they lost in overtime to the Flin Flon Bombers 4-3.
The Bruins started out strong in the opening period with some early chances but the game remained scoreless until Ausin Yano's bouncing puck found it's way past Devin Buffalo to give the Bruins a 1-0.
The second period the Bruins continued with another strong effort and rewarded when Austin Daae found Tanner Froese on a 2 on 1 rush and Froese managed to back hand a shot past Buffalo to give the Bruins a 2-0 lead after 40 minutes.
But the Bombers controlled the third period. Brett Boehm got the Bombers on the scoreboard to cut the Bruins lead to 2-1. Then Cole McCaig deflected a point shot to tie the game at 2-2. The Bombers would silence the crowd at Spectra Place just over a minute later when Brett Penner scored for the Bombers giving Flin Flon.
With just over a minute left, Tyler Paslawski forced a Bomber penalty which set up a 6 on 4 advantage for the Bruins. With 36 seconds left, Tyler Kauk carried the puck into the Bombers end and slide it across to Matt Brykaliuk who scored and tied the game at 3-3.
But the Bombers would get the final laugh in overtime as Landon Hiebert scored 33 seconds into overtime to give the Bombers the win 4-3.
After the game Keith Cassidy wasn't happy with the final result. He said in the second intermission that he stressed to continue playing like they did in the first two periods as they were playing a lot inside of the Bombers end. He said the first goal was a result of a Bruins give away which is something they shouldn't be doing. He admitted that it was a frustrating result and felt for the guys in the locker room for the guys in the locker room.
