David Adaszynski scored late in the first overtime to lead the Calgary Hitmen to a 2-1 overtime win Saturday night over the Rebels in Red Deer.
The win tied the best-of-seven series at a game apiece.

Sean Tschigerl converted a loose puck in front of the Rebels net, tying the score at one with 1:37 remaining in regulation time.
Red Deer outshot Calgary 39-38, with Peters getting the win for the Hitmen.
The Hitmen and Rebels were both blanked on four power play opportunities apiece.
Game 3 is Monday night at Saddledome. Puck drop is 7 p.m.
