The Surrey Eagles will advance to the second round playoffs after forward Matthew Campese potted an overtime goal against Langley Rivermen (5-4) in South Surrey Friday evening.
After a blocked shot by Eagles’ centre Jeffrey Stewart, Jackson Ross made an end-to-end pass to Ryan Brushett, which was chipped to Campese.
Campese sent a wrister over the shoulder of Riverman goalie Braedon Fleming only 45 seconds into overtime play.
The Eagles eliminated the Rivermen in six games.
