LETTIERI’S OVERTIME WINNER LIFTS P-BRUINS TO VICTORY OVER WOLF PACK

Jan 15, 2023

Providence, RI - Vinni Lettieri netted the game-winning goal 26 seconds into overtime to lift the Providence Bruins to victory over the Hartford Wolf Pack 3-2 on Sunday evening at the Amica Mutual Pavilion. Justin Brazeau posted a goal and an assist in the game, while goaltender Kyle Keyser stopped 29 shots in his first game back since November 5. Marc McLaughlin tallied the other goal for the P-Bruins.

 

How It Happened

  • Entering the zone, Mike Reilly fed Brazeau on the right wing, where he fired a wrist shot from the right circle to beat the goaltender glove side and give the P-Bruins a 1-0 lead with 10:09 remaining in the first period. Jakub Lauko was also credited with an assist on the goal. 
  • Ty Emberson beat the goaltender high blocker side with a wrist shot from the top of the right circle to tie the game at 1-1 with 7:39 to play in the first period. 
  • McLaughlin found a rebound off a shot from Brazeau at the bottom of the right circle and buried the puck to give Providence a 2-1 lead with 3:19 left in the first period.
  • Zac Jones sent the puck up the middle of the ice to Tanner Fritz, who went in alone on a breakaway, where he flipped the puck over the left shoulder of the goaltender to tie the game at 2-2 with 9:15 remaining in the third period.  
  • 26 seconds into overtime, Lysell toe-dragged around a defenseman in the slot and dished the puck to Lettieri at the left circle, who hammered a one-timer short side top shelf to win the game for the P-Bruins. Jack Ahcan also received an assist on the goal.
