Hershey, with an assist by former UAA Seawolves center Jay Beagle, staved off elimination in the American Hockey League playoffs Wednesday night with a 3-2 overtime win against Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. But Penguins forward Chris Minard, the former Alaska Aces sniper, made it interesting.

Minard scored two goals, including an extra-attacker strike with just 19 seconds left in regulation to force overtime. He has four goals and an assist, and a +4 rating in four games -- the Pengiuns lead the best-of-7 series 3-1.

Hershey made Wilkes-Barre/Scranton's one-night death sudden -- Alexandre Giroux scored just 20 seconds into the extra session.

Beagle's assist was his first point of the series, in which he is -4. Also, Penguins forward Tim Wallace of Anchorage owns 1-1--2 totals and a +3 rating in the series.
