<p>November 18, 2005- Dustin Cloutier scored with 30.2 seconds left in overtime to give the host RoughRiders a 3-2 win over the Des Moines Buccaneers.</p> <p>Cloutier took a Ray Kaunisto feed in the right wing circle and snapped the Riders' only shot of overtime past Des Moines goaltender Brian Foster. </p> <p>The Riders twice took the lead in regulation only for the Buccaneers to battle and back even the score on both occasions. </p> <p>Ryan Gunderson, who was making his Rider debut after being acquired from the Tri-City Storm earlier in the week, charged into the goalmouth to score the game's first goal at 7:02 of the first period.</p> <p>Des Moines' Kyle Okposo knotted the game at one apiece when he swept the puck in off of Rider goaltender Al Stalock and just over the goal line with 16:40 gone in the first.</p> <p>Jacob Cepis' shorthanded breakaway goal put the Riders back on top at 4:34 of the second period but the Bucs responded just under six minutes later. Stalock was caught out of the net as Ken Rowe tucked a Richard Purslow centering pass home from the goalmouth.</p> <p>Stalock, who stopped 36 shots on the night, kept Bucs off the scoreboard the rest of the way to set the stage for Cloutier's later heroics. </p> <p><a href="http://www.pointstreak.com/prostats/boxscore.html?gameid=232492" target="_blank">Box Score</a></p>
