Rocket @ Thunderbirds recap & highlights: Laval storms back to win in overtime

Laval Rocket forward Jean-Sébastien Dea skated into the zone, took a drop pass from Kevin Roy, dragged the puck and fired the snap shot past Colten Ellis as the Laval Rocket came all the way back to defeat the Springfield Thunderbirds 4-3 in overtime on Friday night.

It was Dea’s 10th goal of the season and his second straight game-winning goal after also securing the winning marker on Wednesday. The goal completed a two-goal third period comeback for the Rocket, who extended their winning streak to four games.

“I didn’t have the start of the season that I wanted, so it did some good to do a bit of a reset over the holidays,” Dea said.
