Squirrels 5, Vikings 5

The Screaming Squirrels opened our first full season of Hockey North America play by skating to a 5-5 tie with the Vikings. The scoring was back and forth with the Vikings taking a lead with just over 2 minutes remaining in the game. With just over a minute to go, the Squirrels took their time out, and with less than a minute remaining pulled the goalie. With only 17 ticks left on the clock, Adam Hughes took a shot off the pass from Don Marks and the rebound caromed up into the air. Greg Wenograd and Juan Canchasto were waiting in front of the crease as the puck came down, and Juan was able to put it in the back of the net. The Screaming Squirrels then skated a 5 minute, running clock, overtime with the Vikings and tied their first game while wearing the new road jerseys.
