Bandits steal overtime victory from Rush
The Buffalo Bandits stole a 16-15 overtime win in a fourth-quarter collapse as the Saskatchewan Rush, lost a perfect season.
A quick start from the Rush resulted in 4 goals on the first 4 shots, a 9-3 halftime lead and a 12-5 third-quarter score that seemed to have the Bandits taken care of.
But a goaltender change in the first quarter from starter Alex Buque to backup Zach Higgins seemed to calm the Bandits down.
Buffalo was able to reorganize on both sides of the floor and put together a 7 goal fourth quarter to send the game to overtime.
