Penguins win Game 3 in overtime 4-3 after Ilya Protas gets stick slashed out hands on Avery Hayes' game-tying goal: 'I think it was a penalty'
""Like I said, two minutes left in the game, we're up a goal. You know, we've done a pretty good job this year defending like that. It's just, you know, a guy loses his stick, hits a shin pad, goes in, and then anything can happen in overtime. You never know.""
""I think it was a penalty myself," Bears head coach Derek King stated when asked about the missed call that led to the Penguins' game-tying goal."
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins secured a 4-3 overtime victory against the Hershey Bears, moving one win away from the Atlantic Division Finals. The game featured a controversial moment when Penguins coach Kirk MacDonald pulled goaltender Sergei Murashov for an extra attacker, leading to a game-tying goal by Avery Hayes. The Bears expressed disbelief over a missed penalty call that they believed impacted the game's outcome. Rutger McGroarty scored the overtime winner, sealing the Penguins' victory.
