The Manitoba Moose (9-19-1-1) secured a 4-3 overtime win against the Milwaukee Admirals (16-10-2-3) on Wednesday. The Moose were coming off a 3-2 win against the Calgary Wranglers on Sunday.

Both teams were held off the scoresheet through the first period. Mason Shaw and Dylan Anhorn paced Manitoba’s offence with two shots a piece. Kevin Gravel registered three shots for Milwaukee. Thomas Milic made 11 saves in the Manitoba crease, and Magnus Chrona made eight stops for Milwaukee.

Ben King opened the scoring for the Moose, five minutes into the second period, to give them a 1-0 lead. Kevin Gravel struck back for the Admirals two minutes later to settle the score at 1-1. Jake Livingstone added a goal of his own with six minutes left in the frame to give the Admirals their first lead. Mason Shaw capitalized on a late Moose powerplay in the final minutes of the period, to tie things back up at 2-2. Milic made 10 stops in net for Manitoba, and Chrona made seven stops in the Milwaukee crease.

Parker Ford fired one past Chrona to give Manitoba a 3-2 lead just 89 seconds into the final frame.
