Rymon scored the game-tying goal with 2:32 left in the third period, rifling a one-timer to the back of the net from a setup by Landon DuPont.
Kaden Hammell netted the OT winner 2:07 into three-on-three, as the puck ricocheted off the glass landing right in front of Hammell for a tap in to end the game.
Alex Garrett stopped 32 of 35 in the win, his seventh of the season. The Silvertips improved to 19-3-1-1 with the victory.
