KAMLOOPS — The Kamloops Blazers snapped a four-game losing streak with a 3-2 overtime win over the Winterhawks in Portland Thursday (Oct. 17).
Defenceman Harrison Brunicke opened the scoring for the Blazers 1:47 into the first period by putting home a loose puck into an open net.
The Blazers held on to a 1-0 lead until early in the third period where the Winterhawks scored on the final second of a 5-on-3 power play before scoring another power a minute later.
Halfway through the third, the Blazers responded with a power play goal of their own. Nathan Behm scored his team-leading eighth goal of the season on a sharp angle shot. The game would remain 2-2 heading into overtime.
