Will Cuylle tied the game for Windsor early in the third, but Sarnia again answered with a goal in the second half of the period. Cuylle scored his second of the night with less than three minutes left in the period to tie the game and force OT. The Sting scored the game-winning goal 4:18 into extra time.
