The Trade-Mart Dundee Stars banked a point in Belfast on Saturday night but had the second point stolen away in the final minute of overtime as they battled back and forth with the Giants on Saturday night.

The home team would take the lead just 86 seconds into the game as Jordan Kawaguchi was placed behind the goal line and picked out the arriving Joe Cassetti and he lifted the puck past Dundee goalie, Richard Sabol from point blank range.

Belfast then had a man advantage after two minutes of play as Stars forward, Brogan O’Brien was called for tripping but the Tayside team saw out his two-minute penalty before finding an equaliser as Ben O’Connor got the puck forward to Jake Elmer and he rushed in behind before picking his spot past netminder, Tom McCollum on five minutes.

Then just 31 seconds later, Dundee took the lead as they rushed forward again and this time Alex Tonge’s effort would bounce off the pads of McCollum and into the path of Brendan Harms for an easy tap-in.

 

 

Marc LeFebvre’s men did not let up there and five minutes later added a third goal as newly arrived forward, Kameron Kielly marked his debut with a goal by releasing a rapid wrist shot into the top of the net from the slot.
