RoKi Hockey took it 4-3 over TUTO Hockey in a shootout, the only goal of the skills competition settling a game neither side could separate across 65 minutes. Three periods, three ties, and a scoreless overtime — the margin was that thin.
It was 1-1 after 20, RoKi opening at 3 and TUTO answering at 5. The middle frame followed the same script: TUTO went ahead at 34, RoKi replied inside a minute at 35, and after TUTO struck again at 49, RoKi tied it at 51 to force overtime at 3-3.
The number that matters: 1-0 in the shootout, and 0-0 through the extra period. Each of TUTO's three leads lasted a combined handful of minutes — RoKi answered within two minutes every time, and that response time is what got them to the shootout.
