GREEN BAY, Wis. (2/2/25) – Green Bay forward Will Zellers scored a pair of goals, including the game winner 54 seconds into overtime, to send the Gamblers past the Muskegon Lumberjacks 3-2 Sunday afternoon at the Resch Center for Boys & Girls Club Day, Bluey & Paw Patrol Night and Scout Day.

Late in the second period, the Gamblers got on the board after Aidan Park scored his 25th goal of the season off a pass from Adrew O’Sullivan to give Green Bay’s offense a spark.
The third period was back-and-forth until Zellers took over late in the game, and with 1:34 to go, he scored the game-tying goal off assists from Geno Carcone and Park. Less than a minute into overtime, Zellers tallied his league-leading 29th goal of the season when he slotted home a goal past Muskegon goaltender Stephen Peck on a breakaway to win the game for the Gamblers.
