Ignition Coil Connector Question

Hey guys I f***ed up. Not terrible but bad. I was trying to disconnect my ignition coil connector but the retainer tab snapped. OH *****. The pigtail is staying put and the truck runs fine still but I will get a new connector. My concern is that all the aftermarket connectors have three wires (1 in one terminal, 2 in the other) and my stock connector has one wire on each terminal, only two total. Cam I tie off the extra wire with no issues?
