ESTERO, Fla. – The Florida Everblades can push the South Carolina Stingrays to the brink of elimination with a win in Game Four of the South Division Semifinals on Friday, April 28 at 7:30 p.m.
Florida holds a 2-1 series lead after grabbing a 4-3 OT win against the Stingrays on Wednesday.
Logan Lambdin scored the overtime winner 5:23 into the extra frame while Sean Josling, Joe Pendenza, and Levko Koper also scored for the Everblades. Josling’s goal was his third of the postseason while Pendenza, Koper, and Lambdin all scored their first.
Jarid Lukosevicius scored twice, including with less than one minute in regulation to force overtime, with Chaz Reddekopp also scoring for South Carolina. Lukosevicius is now the first player for the Stingrays to score multiple goals.
Cam Johnson made 32 saves for the win while Clay Stevenson got the loss, also making 32 saves.
