A key penalty kill in bonus time was the catalyst for a victory in North York for the Wellington Dukes on Sunday.

With Marco Wolf in the box for an infraction, Gavin Godick sprung loose to set up Blake Berthiaume for the heroics on the Dukes only shot of overtime in a 4-3 win at Herb Carnegie Arena.

The Rangers got a three-way connection going for their first goal, with Patrick Farmer finishing it off at the 15:06 mark of the opening period.

The offence picked up in the second for both teams, with the Dukes answering Linden Keith’s early marker with OJHL goals-leader Landon Marleau’s 20th of the season, tapping in a feed from Zach Anderson off a rush started by Jayden Levesque.

Levesque, the native of Milton, tied the game with his fifth of the season at 13:10 off a powerplay faceoff, but the deadlock lasted all of 13 seconds thanks to Reid DeBokx’s go-ahead tally.

That goal lifted the Rangers back into the driver’s seat going into the last regulation period, but the Dukes persisted enough to break down North York, draw another penalty and get back even again.

Marleau worked a give-and-go down low with Anderson and popped his 21st of the season past Isaac Gravelle on the ensuing powerplay to tie the score 3-3 at 6:44.

Justin Doak added the second assist to extend his point streak to six consecutive games.

The equalizer set the stage for overtime and Berthiaume’s winner, his sixth of the season and second shorthanded goal in as many games, set up beautifully by the 16-year rearguard who just came off winning a bronze medal at the Under-17 Challenge in Oakville Saturday.

Wellington outshot the Rangers 36-29, with Dryden Riley making 26 saves.

The Dukes now ride back-to-back wins into a special Friday evening facing off against the arch-rival Trenton Golden Hawks at CIBC Place in Belleville at 7 p.m. for the OJHL Challenge in support of the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation.
