Lundmark drew the secondary assist on the goal. Peoria's Chris Conner capped the scoring for the first period when he converted a 2-on-1 break following a feed from Steve Regier.

The Flames took the lead on the strength of three goals in the middle period. Brad Brown opened the second period scoring with an even strength goal just 3:52 into the frame. Brown, in his Quad City debut, powered home a blast from the top of the right wing circle to put the Flames back in front. Quad City extended their lead five minutes later when Jamie Lundmark tipped home a Ryan Wilson pass during a Quad City power play. The Flames added another power-play marker with 5:01 left in the second period when Brad Cole scored on a blast from the high slot.
