PETERBOROUGH, ON - The Peterborough Petes saw their winning streak extend to two games this evening as they beat the host Belleville Bulls in a shootout, the second straight shootout win for the maroon and white.
The two teams battled hard in the first period with Belleville striking twice, once on the power play and once at even strength. However, before the period could come to a close, Sault Ste. Marie native David Quesnele slid a pass from Zach Tatrn into the empty cage to pull the maroon and white within one goal after twenty minutes.
Newcomer Mike Lomas, acquired in a trade last Thursday from the Erie Otters, scored his first goal with the club to pull the Petes even.
The Bulls pulled ahead midway through the third period and looked to have the game won with just 30 seconds left. However, overage forward Pat Daley centered a pass in front of the Belleville net that managed to bounce past the Bulls goaltender that sent the game into overtime.
The overtime solved nothing and the game was decided in the shootout. Petes' netminder Jason Missiaen stopped both shots he faced and forwards Ryan Spooner and Matt Puempel both scored to lift the Petes past the Bulls 4-3.
Next action for the Petes comes tomorrow night when they play host to the Kitchener Rangers, 7:00 PM at the Peterborough Memorial Centre.
