Greyhounds 3, Knights 2. Brady Martin scored in overtime to cap regulation time goals from Marco Mignosa and Chase Reid to lift the Hounds to victory. The visiting Hounds outshot the Knights 43-34.

Those 2 games were probably the Hounds best efforts for the last 2 months.
I hope we get better officiating here in the Soo.
