Addison’s overtime heroics give Hurricanes 3-2 win over Hitmen in Game 1
LETHBRIDGE, AB – The Lethbridge Hurricanes thought they had the go-ahead goal late in the 2nd period of Game 1 against the Calgary Hitmen, but they had to fight on until Calen Addison sealed the deal with a shot from the point in overtime on Friday, Mar. 23, to give the Hurricanes a 3-2 victory.
Lethbridge had an OK start to the game on Friday night, but Calgary found their legs midway through the 1st period and began to take control of play.
That led to the Hitmen opening the scoring at 14:36, when Calgary captain Mark Kastelic tipped home a point shot by Egor Zamula that eluded Carl Tetachuk making it 1-0.
That’s where things stood when the horn sounded to end the 1st period, with the Hitmen also ahead on the shot clock by an 11-7 margin.
