The Green Bay Gamblers came close to securing their first win in nearly a month only to come short again in a 5-4 OT defeat to the Dubuque Fighting Saints.

The two teams traded goals in the first period with the Gamblers' William Samuelsson tying the game up in the final minute. Trailing by one, the Gamblers found the back of the net twice in the second period with Niles Benson and Will Zellers providing the offense. Zellers would find the net again to give the Gamblers a short-lived lead before the Fighting Saints tied the game up to force the extra period. Overtime was not a long affair as Gavin Cornforth scored the game-winner in 44 seconds to send the Gamblers to their seventh straight loss. 

They will try to salvage one game in their month-ending homestand on Sunday when they play Team USA on Sunday at 3:05 p.m.
