Reign Rally for Point in Shootout
December 15, 2019 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Ontario Reign News Release
On Teddy Bear Toss night, Ontario skated to a shootout loss vs Iowa in a wild affair. With the game tied at two with less than 30 seconds remaining in period three, the Wild's Louis Belpedio (1-0-1) rocketed a slapshot past Cal Petersen (3 GA, 28 SVS) to give Iowa what looked to be a victory In regulation. Following a Reign timeout though, Ontario forechecked off a faceoff loss to win the puck behind the net and equalize the game with just 12 seconds remaining. With the net empty, Brett Sutter (0-1-1) moved the puck to Gabriel Vilardi (1-1-2) who was able to find the back of the net to tie the game at three. After a fruitless overtime for both sides, a shootout ensued. Martin Frk (0-1-1) was able to score on the opening attempt, but shootout goals from Sam Anas (0-1-1) and Dmitry Sokolov proved enough to give Iowa an extra point and the victory.
