In their first non-divisional game of the season, the Swamp Rabbits found the opening goal of the game at 17:33, as Captain Frank Hora snapped a puck to the backside post for Nikita Pavlychev to tip into the Thunder net for the 1-0 lead and his seventh of the season.Greenville added to its advantage with a rebound goal by Alex Ierullo, his fourth of the season for the 2-0 advantage. At 13:22, Adirondack's Shane Harper fired his third of the season into the Greenville net to close the gap to a single tally. In the third, Brett Kemp re-established Greenville's two-goal advantage, lifting a backhanded goal, his fourth of the season, into the net at 7:01. Adirondack clawed its way back into the game with a Jake Ryczek goal at 15:51, before Sebastian Vidmar angled a puck off his skate at 16:11 to tie the game and send the contest into overtime. The extra frame began with a quick chance for the Swamp Rabbits that developed into an odd-man rush for the Thunder in the other direction.
