The Estevan Apex midget AA Bruins picked up a pair of wins in Saskatchewan Minor AA Hockey League play on the weekend.
The Bruins went into Wilcox on Friday night and came away with a 4-3 overtime victory over the Notre Dame Argos, with Dylan Hull scoring the winner 72 seconds into extra time.
Notre Dame took a 1-0 lead midway through the first period, but Tanner Stovin scored just over a minute later to tie the game at ones after the opening frame. Stovin then scored again with 34 seconds to play in the second period to give the Bruins a 2-1 lead after 40 minutes.
The Hounds scored in the third to tie the game again, but Joey Meredith tallied midway through the third to restore the Bruins advantage. It appeared the goal might hold up as the winner, but the Argos tied the game with 13 seconds remaining in the third period to force overtime.
Zane Winter stopped 27 shots to get the victory for Estevan.
Two nights later, the Bruins were at home at Affinity Place for the first time this month, and eked out a 1-0 win over the Lumsden-Bethune Lions. Kelby Widenmaier had the only goal of the game, a power play marker with 17 minutes to play in the second period.
Morgan Wanner stopped 27 shots for the shutout victory.
Estevan will close out the pre-Christmas portion of their schedule by facing the Regina Vics on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Both games will be at Affinity Place.
