ROANOKE, VA--For the second time in three games, the Danbury Trashers failed to hold a 3rd period lead as they let the Roanoke Vipers win 4-3 in a shootout at the Roanoke Civic Center on Saturday night.

In the third, Jamie Thompson gave Danbury a 2-1 lead with his 4th of the season at the 5:06 mark, but Mike Krelove tied the game with his second just 1:28 later. JM Daoust regained the lead for Danbury at the 15:36 mark, but the Vipers LP Martin tied the score with his 10th just 18 seconds later.
