Another comeback to get an important point, but the Guelph Storm defeated the North Bay Battalion 3-2 in overtime on Sunday afternoon.

Penalties dominated as the Troops spent half the game in the penalty box.

Head Coach Stan Butler (pictured) says it was hard to sway the games’ momentum.

“When there’s no flow to the game, it’s tough.  It’s tough for the players, if they aren’t on the penalty kill, they don’t play as much,”  he said.

Battalion forward Adam McMaster had two assists while Justin Brazeau scored his 31st of the season to tie the game in the final minute.

Brad Chenier also scored for North Bay.

Next up the Troops are home to Flint on Thursday night.
