Recap
Men In Black secured a wild 8-7 overtime victory against The Strawberrys in a game that felt like a tactical shootout from start to finish. Despite The Strawberrys controlling the puck for the vast majority of the contest—nearly doubling MIB's time on attack with 1001 seconds compared to just 472—they couldn't find a way to pull away. The narrative was defined by MIB's clinical finishing versus the relentless pressure of the Strawberrys. The game swung back and forth until willisx97 put the finishing touches on a masterclass performance, netting the game-winning goal in the extra frame to cap off the 15-goal thriller.

The deciding factor was a tale of efficiency versus possession. The Strawberrys dominated the flow, evidenced by their massive time on attack and 22-19 shot advantage, but Men In Black were lethal whenever they crossed the blue line.
