Mitchell Moroz pounced on a rebound 3:34 into overtime lifting the Edmonton Oil Kings to a 3-2 win over the Calgary Hitmen Sunday at Scotiabank Saddledome.

The win gave Edmonton a sweep of the weekend home-and-home series with Calgary and moves them a single point up on the Hitmen for first place in the WHL's Eastern Conference. 

Calgary played without five regulars, including captain Jaynen Rissling who missed the game due to sickness.
