A goal by forward Avery Hayes at 2:09 of overtime gave the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins a 3-2 win against the rival Hershey Bears at Mohegan Sun Arena in Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.
Forward Atley Calvert scored both regulation goals for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton (34-18-7-1) while goaltender Sergei Murashov made 24 saves on 26 shots to keep his American Hockey League record unblemished at 10-0-0.
