Luchuk scored his second of the night to put Windsor on top 13:05 into the second, but Sault Ste. Marie tied the game once again with a goal just over a minute later.
The third period was more of the same, with Mathew MacDougall scoring to give Windsor the lead after six minutes, and the Soo getting a goal late in the frame to force overtime.
Tim Gettinger scored the game winner for the Greyhounds 1:58 into the extra period.
Windsor goaltender Michael DiPietro made 34 saves out of 38 shots on net.
