For the second straight game, Easton Swift scores in overtime.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI loved our response tonight,\u201d said Head Coach Kevin St. Jacques. \u201cWe didn\u2019t have our cleanest start, but the bench never panicked. Our guys stuck with it, got contributions up and down the lineup, and found a way when it mattered most. That\u2019s a resilient group in that locker room, and these kinds of wins say a lot about who we\u2019re becoming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The game was tied at 3-3 going into the third period. Odessa broke the ice first when Jeremy Jacobs snapped a power-play goal. Midway through the period, IceRays&#8217; Lucas Hihn tied it up when he found the net for the second time. It came down to a 3-on-3 overtime. Sam Troutwine and Justin Thibault set up, where he ripped a wrist shot into the top corner for the 5\u20134 overtime victory.<\/p>\n<p>            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1769235548_838_.jpeg\" alt=\"IceRays' Easton Swift celebrates OT goal against the Jackalopes\"  width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Larissa Liska<\/p>\n<p>The IceRays and Jackalopes wrap up their weekend series on Saturday at 7:05 p.m. at the Hilliard Center.
