The Henderson Silver Knights extended their win streak with a 5-4 comeback victory over the Tucson Roadrunners. Brendan Brisson scored the overtime winner and Calen Addison recorded a three-assist game.
HOW IT WENT DOWN
The Roadrunners got on the board first with a goal from Douglas, and then quickly doubled their lead with another from Barron.
Mason Morelli found the back of the net to make it a 2-1 game headed into the first intermission. Dysin Mayo and Cal Burke both assisted on the play.
The Roadrunners responded with another two goals early in the middle frame to make it a 4-1 lead.
Braeden Bowman brought the Silver Knights back within two with a power-play goal late in the second. Jonas Rondbjerg and Bischoff had the assists. Bowman now leads the Silver Knights with nine goals.
With the extra skater on late in the third, Matyas Sapovaliv cut the deficit to one with his eighth goal of the season, with both Addison and Bischoff assisting.

Brisson, who had a goal waved off early in the first period, buried the game-winner to secure the Knights’ second straight victory.
