For the first time this season, the North Stars ended up as overtime losers after dropping a 3-2 decision to Notre Dame Hounds.
The North Stars were back on the road again for their fourth straight game Tuesday night in Wilcox, playing division rivals. This was also the first game in the lineup for Ben Hiltz and Jaxon Steele, both acquired over the weekend in deals by the club.
Things got off to a decent start for the road team as Quintin Loon-Stewardson got his 21st of the season from Elijah Loon-Stewardson at 8:51 on a power play goal in the first period.
In the second Jarrett Penner scored at the 3:23 mark from Olivier Lepine, but late in the period Noah Form put the North Stars back on top with his sixth of the season from Matthias Urbanski and Quintin Loon-Stewardson.
But that would be all the North Stars scoring on the night. Cole Steven tied it up at the 3:40 mark in period three from Joseph Santalucia and Jake Dale.
The winning goal came 47 seconds into overtime from the stick of Guillaume St Onge, with Jarrett Penner the assist.
The win went to Riley Kohonick in net for the Hounds who stopped 36 of 38 shots. Adam Dmyterko took the loss stopping 17 of 20.
The North Stars got one point for the overtime effort, moving their record to 26-3-1-0 on the season for 53 points on the season. So far on their road trip the North Stars have two wins, one regulation-time loss, and one overtime loss.
The North Stars were scheduled to finish their road trip Wednesday in Estevan before returning to the Battlefords to host Kindersley Friday night at the Civic Centre.
