St. Cloud State Downs Tigers in Overtime

Three Colorado College players had a goal and an assist Friday night, but St. Cloud State's Cooper Wylie scored 16 seconds into overtime to defeat the Tigers, 6-5, at The Herb Brooks National Hockey Center in St. Cloud, Minn.
 
Wylie took a pass from Austin Burnenik and beat CC goalie Jackson Unger from the slot for the Huskies (16-15-0, 9-12-0 NCHC).
 
Drew Montgomery, Philippe Blais-Savoie and Brandon Lisowsky each collected a goal and an assist and Connor Hvidston had a pair of assists for the Tigers (11-14-4, 5-10-4).
 
The Tigers jumped out to a 1-0 lead when Blais-Savoie notched his seventh goal of the season at the 5:01 mark. He took a pass from Hvidston and his shot from the point snuck past SCSU goalie Patriks Berzens' glove and into the net.
 
Montgomery, who collected the second assist on Blais-Savoie's goal, made it 2-0 at 12:48 of the opening frame. Hvidston sent the puck behind the net, but it took a strange bounce and right out front to Montgomery, whose first shot was saved by Berzins, but then on the rebound.
 
St. Cloud State cut the lead in half when Tanner Henricks scored at the 5:52 mark of the second period. He skated down the right side, cut in towards the net, and placed a backhander past Unger.
 
Klavs Veinbergs put the Tigers back up by a pair at 12:50 of the middle frame. Lisowsky sent a pass from the side boards to Veinbergs, who was all alone on Berzins and beat him from the slot for his team-leading 10th goal of the season.
 
The Huskies again cut the deficit to one when Burnevik sent a one-timer past Unger from the right circle with 2:49 remaining in the second period, then evened things up when Nolan Roed completed a 2-on-1 rush with a wrister from the right circle.
 
However, Bret Link scored his sixth goal of the season with 39 seconds remaining in the frame when he deflected a shot by Wilson Bjorck past Berzins to give CC a 4-3 lead after 40 minutes.
 
SCSU tied it once again with Ryan Rosborough scored at the 2:44 mark of the third period, but Lisowsky made it 5-4 with a wrister from the slot at the 4:45 mark for his fifth goal of the season.
 
Gavyn Thoreson evened the game at 5-5 at the 11:45 mark when he flipped a rebound shot past Unger, setting up overtime.
 
Unger finished with a career-high 33 saves, while Berzins had 19, as SCSU held a 39-24 advantage in shots. The Tigers did not have a power-play opportunity as SCSU's lone penalty was associated with coincidental calls. CC killed off all three of St. Cloud State's power plays.
 
The teams wrap up their weekend and season series on Saturday, Feb. 14, beginning at 6 p.m. (CT).
