Kitchener, ON - The Rangers erased another two-goal deficit in the third period to force overtime Tuesday night against the Generals. Luke Torrance spoiled the comeback with his 20th goal of the season to hand Oshawa the extra point. Christian Humphreys got on the score sheet to record a goal in his third straight game and is up to seven point in that span. Trent Swick got the other two goals for the Rangers, scoring his 24th and 25th goal of the season to tie his career high from last season.

Oshawa got on the board first 2:43 into the game through Harrison Franssen. Trent Swick evened the score eight minutes later with a rocket wrist shot. Beckett Sennecke scored late in the first to give Oshawa a one-goal lead after 20. Brooks Rogowski scored the lone second period goal extending the Generals lead to 3-1 after 40 minutes of play. Christian Humphreys gave the Rangers life as he banked the puck off the back of Oshawa goalie, Jacob Oster from behind the net to cut the lead in half. Then, with the goalie pulled, Trent Swick re-directed a sweet tic-tac-toe play to force overtime. In the overtime period, Luke Torrance scored the game winner for the Generals securing the extra point.
