Ontario Reign News Release


Ontario, CA - Defenseman Kevin Gravel buried the game-tying tally late in the third period to send the Ontario Reign (5-0-2-0) into overtime for the second straight contest, but the San Antonio Rampage (5-0-1-0) prevailed in the extra session, 2-1, Saturday afternoon at Citizens Business Bank Arena.

Box Score The Rampage kicked off the scoring 24 seconds into the contest as forward Andrew Agozzino settled a bouncing puck and sent a wrist shot over the glove of Reign netminder Ray Emery (OTL, 19 saves on 21 shots) from between the faceoff circles. Defenseman Kurtis MacDermid spun the momentum around for the Reign, dropping the gloves with San Antonio's Mason Geertsen at 6:14. Following the scrap, Ontario peppered Rampage goaltender Calvin Pickard (W, 37 saves on 38 shots) with numerous scoring chances and rifled 21 shots on goal in the period, but could not find the game-tying marker.

In the second period, team defense took center stage as the two sides combined for 12 total shots.

With the clock winding down and Emery pulled for the extra attacker, the Reign evened the score with 44 seconds left in regulation off a drive from Gravel at the right-wing point. Forwards Sean Backman and Adrian Kempe added assists.

For the second straight game, Rampage forward Ben Street provided the overtime heroics tapping in a pass from Agozzino past the right pad of Emery on a 2-on-1 rush at 3:15.

The Reign finished the game 0-for-4 on the power play while the Rampage went 0-for-3.
