Grosse Pointe South and Muskegon Mona Shores traded leads for three periods March 10, 2007, before taking the Division 2 championship game to overtime.
The following 6 minutes and 46 seconds belonged to the Blue Devils, who fired all seven shots on goal taken in extra time and clinched their first MHSAA Finals championship in ice hockey when Tim Shield rushed the net and wristed home the game-winner.
“It was unbelievable,” Shield told the Detroit Free Press after the 4-3 victory. “Unreal.
“Chance after chance, it wouldn’t go in. By that time, we knew it was coming.”
See below for coverage of the game-winner from the NFHS Network.

Below is this week's segment – Hockey Overtime - Listen
There may be nothing more exciting than overtime hockey in the playoffs. So what happens in the MHSAA Ice Hockey Tournament when a winner cannot be determined after three periods?
If a game is tied at the end of regulation, sudden victory overtime is played for a maximum of four, 8-minute overtime periods. If someone scores a goal in one of those periods, they win – game over.
But if it’s still tied after four overtime periods, then the fifth overtime period and any additional overtime periods are played 4 on 4 until a winner is determined.
Let’s say a team starts the fifth OT with two players in the penalty box. Then that period will start 5 on 3 until the penalties expire. Then, at the first stoppage – teams revert to 4 on 4.
