Tyson Greenway broke through with the first goal of the evening 1:06 into the second period as he redirected a shot from Lukas Dragicevic. Tri-City extended their lead to 2-0 late in the period as Blackhawks prospect Jalen Luypen put home a rebound for his 14th goal of the season.
Spokane got on the board with a goal from Tommaso De Luca seconds into the final period, putting the Chiefs within one. Tri-City held on to their lead and secured their victory with a goal from Jordan Gavin late in the period. Reese Belton took a breakout pass from Jake Sloan and set up Gavin in front of the net. The Ams rookie scored top-shelf over Chiefs netminder Dawson Cowan.
