Felix Robert was the game’s third star.
One night after Syracuse blew a one goal Third Period lead, Providence came within an eyelash of blowing a two goal advantage in the final frame before pulling it out in OT.
Simon Ryfors led the way on the stat sheet with 1-2-3 and for the moment has entered the top-20 in the league in scoring. He’s also tied for fifth in the league in goals at the moment. A scoring change knocked Darren Raddysh down to a pair of assists, which was still sufficient for the defenseman to pass teammate Alex Barre-Boulet into the top spot in the league in scoring with the forward up with Tampa Bay. Other multi-pointers included Robert (2-0-0) and Ilya Usau (1-1-2).
