The 20-year-old pivot then leveled the contest 2-2 with another power play conversion late in the second frame en route to a dramatic 4-3 overtime victory for the Phantoms, the 700th win in franchise history.In the back end of the home-and-home set with the Flames on Saturday night, Laughton scored once shorthanded and once at even strength to erase an early deficit before Adirondack eventually outlasted Lehigh Valley 4-2.
