Viktor Lodin scored twice to play hero on Wednesday night at CAA Arena as the Belleville Senators came from behind to beat the Toronto Marlies 5-4.
Toronto raced out to a 1-0 lead, opening the scoring at 3:50 of the first period as Joey Anderson found the back of the net on the power play.
The Marlies would extend their advantage later in the frame through Brett Seney.
Early in the second period, Belleville got on the board as Lodin notched his first of the night at the 3:56 mark of the frame after he intercepted an errant pass to cut the Toronto lead in half.
The Senators’ strong offensive play continued as Mark Kastelic, and Cole Reinhardt would also tally.
However, Nick Robertson tied the contest at 3-3 on a 5-on-3 man advantage by blasting home a one-timer past Mads Sogaard with just 3.5 seconds left in the stanza.
The back of the fourth affair continued into the final frame as Lassi Thomson and Robertson traded goals in the first half of the period.
Belleville would complete the comeback when Lodin notched his second of the game and eventual game-winner with 1:19 left in the game.
