For the second straight game Nick Lazorko scored the game winner in overtime as the Flyers beat the Steelers in Selkirk 4-3 taking a 3-2 lead in the series. The Flyers are the first road team to win during the series and can advance to the division final with a win on Sunday.

After Friday nights series tying win at home, the Flyers were challenged with the task of trying to be the first round team during this series to win in the opposing teams rink. In order to win the series, they had to do it either tonight or wait for a potential game seven on Tuesday.

The Steelers were able to whether the early Flyer attack and strike first with a powerplay goal by Dylan Heide that deflected off a Flyer defenseman with 5:37 left in the opening period. Brendan Baumgartner made it 2-0 Selkirk when he scored on a breakaway shot taking advantage of a bad Winkler line change. Despite outshooting Selkirk 16-10 through 20 minutes, the Flyers trailed 2-0 after the first.

Flyers backup goalie Carey Dyck replaced Peter Alexander to start the second period after allowing two goals on 10 shots in the first. Dyck played great allowing only one goal on 32 shots the rest of the way.

Seth Ronsberg got the Flyers to within one at the 11:53 mark of the second finishing off a nice give and go with Graham Fast on the powerplay. However, 1:13 later Baumgartner tipped in his second of the game and the Steelers lead was back to two heading into the third period.

The Flyers third period comeback began with another powerplay goal 5:07 into the period. Matt Loopkey took the pass from Jordan Peters in front of the net and from his knees slid the puck past Joey Rewucki, cutting the Steelers lead back to one.

With 6:03 left in the third the Flyers were back on the powerplay. Graham Fast slid the pass to Troy Kliever at the top of the right faceoff circle who then fired it to Michael Wilgosh at the edge of the left slot who ripped it top shelf over a sprawling Rewucki tying the game at three

The Flyers had successfully erased the Steelers 3-1 third period lead and overtime was needed for the second straight game and for the third time in the series.

And for the second consecutive game the game winner came off the stick of Nick Lazorko. The puck came to him low at the left faceoff circle and he ripped a low shot past Rewucki sending his teammates pouring onto the ice for the second time in two nights.

The Flyers scored all three of their regulation goals on the powerplay as they went 3/7. The Steelers were 2/8.

Winkler outshot the Steelers 44-43.

Peters, Ronsberg, Wilgosh, and Graham Fast all finished the game with two points. Peters is now tied with Swan Valley forward Myles Stevens for the lead in playoff scoring with nine points in five games.

The Flyers will take their 3-2 lead in this best of seven Addison Division semi-final series into game six back in Winkler on Sunday night with a chance to win the series and join the Winnipeg Saints in the division final.

20 year old Flyers defenseman T.J. Ahvenniemi will be able to return from his two game suspension in game six.
