The Carnduff Red Devils are one win away from capturing the Big Six Hockey League’s championship.
Carnduff defeated the Redvers Rockets 3-2 in overtime Sunday in Carnduff.
Redvers took a 2-0 lead after the first period on goals by Braeden Magotiaux and Daylin Smallchild that came 40 seconds apart.
Nico Anderson scored for Carnduff in the second period to cut the lead in half.
The Rockets remained on top until Kyle Garagan scored for Carnduff with 48 seconds remaining in the third period to tie the game. And Devon Carriere added the overtime winner a little more than two minutes into the extra frame.
Cody Dumaine was in goal for Carnduff, while Cody Matthewson was the Redvers goalie.
Carnduff will have the chance to clinch the series in Game 3 on March 23 in Redvers. Game time is 8 p.m. Game 4, if necessary, would be March 25 in Carnduff, also at 8 p.m., and Game 5 would be two nights later at 7 p.m. in Redvers.
Redvers Mayor Brad Bulbuck and Carnduff Mayor Ross Apperley have a wager on the final. The losing mayor has to don the other’s jersey after the series.
