WILKES-BARRE, PA - The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins (7-5-3) appeared to be in control with a largely dominant opening 40 minutes of play, out-shooting and out-playing the Hamilton Hammers Saturday night.
But for a second straight night, a two-goal third period lead for the Penguins evaporated and resulted in soul-crushing 3-2 loss in overtime.
Bill Zonnon and Harrison Brunicke tallied first period goals 1:03 apart to get Wilkes-Barre/Scranton out of the gates, but Hamilton responded with two quick goals of their own late in the third period to force overtime.
Liam Foudy (PP) and Pierre Engvall scored just 34 seconds apart in the final five minutes of regulation, before Engvall completed the comeback with his second of the night in overtime.
