After a spurt of Moose pressure, Ville Heinola found Kristian Reichel, who tumbled the disc into the empty net for a 3-1 lead. With 45 seconds remaining, the Griffins pulled the netminder again. Heinola grabbed the puck and as he fell to the ice, sent it into the open net for his second point of the frame. Holm notched the 4-1 victory and ended the game with 23 stops, while Nedeljkovic was hit with the loss and ended with 29 saves of his own.
Quotable

"I think over the entire 60 minutes we played pretty well. Obviously, we had some time on the penalty kill and their goalie was playing really well straight through the entire game. I think we just did the job of sticking with it and ended up coming out on top."
