The draw left the Tigers with a 3-16-3 season mark heading into the final three games of the regular season.
Haley Doll (from Michaela Tonsager) scored a power play goal, her second in as many games, in the opening period to send the Tigers to the first break in a 1-1 tie.
Maddi Oines netted her fifth goal of the season in the second frame to give the Tigers a 2-1 edge heading into the final 17 minutes.
"Maddi has been really showing big strides toward becoming an impact player," Tiger coach Jon Holmes said.
Michaela Hoffman's goal in the defense-dominated third period forced an extra eight-minute session where the Tigers couldn't take advantage of several good scoring chances.
"Their goalie came up huge with some big back door saves," Holmes said.
Missed opportunities told the game story for the Tigers.
"We had chance after chance after chance.," Holmes said, "and they were good chances. We are talking straight-up breakaways and 2-1's.
"Their goalie really played well. It was good to see the quality chances we had, and hopefully we will continue to keep getting them."

Holmes said he was also impressed with the all-around play of senior defender Rachael Peroutky.
"Rachael played very well, often taking the game over by herself," he said.
The Tigers return to action Thursday night with a Missota Conference game at Red Wing, the second-rated Class A team in the state.
