NANAIMO — The Clippers winning streak was stopped at six games after losing 3-2 in overtime to Prince George.

The Spruce Kings got the jump on Nanaimo with Jack Kurrle scoring seven minutes into the game and Luca Primerano adding a power play marker early in the second period.

All Nanaimo’s offense came in a 1:19 span in the final frame when Jake Hewitt and Jeremie Payant brought the game to 2-2.

After some early Clipper pressure in overtime Kilian McGregor-Bennett sniped the winner to silence the Frank Crane Arena Crowd.

The final shots were 28-22 for Nanaimo with Jordan Fairlie earning the win over the Clippers Aidan Campbell.
