George Young and Ryan Perrier got on the board in the losing cause.

Kirklin Young earned the win in goal over Tristan Hynes.

The Spartans held the 1-0 lead after a last-minute goal by Young in the second period, but the Lakers knotted it at one, off the stick of Anstey, midway through the third.

The Lakers then grabbed a one-goal cushion with only 1:59 left on the clock, however, the Spartans wouldn’t quit, scoring 23 seconds later to send the game to the extra frame.
