A natural hat trick from an unlikely source kept the Delta Ice Hawks as the lone unbeaten team in the Pacific International Junior Hockey League.
David Rudin's third goal of the game in the second overtime period gave the Ice Hawks a 5-4 come-from-behind victory over the Grandview Steelers on Sunday afternoon. The 18-year-old blueliner had not scored since the 2011-12 season.
Delta was trailing 4-2 when Rudin went to work. He converted set-ups from Evan Gannary and Spencer Schoen less than two minutes apart. Brent Chreptyk assisted on his overtime winner. Spencer Schoen and affiliate Brett Geltz also scored.
