With the play at 4-on-4, Richard Whittaker deflected a point shot from Liam Ham to beat goaltender Arturs Silovs. Thomas Harley cut the lead to 4-2 with a slapshot from the top of the faceoff circle, as the Steelheads continued to push the pace of play heading into the third period.

The Colts struck first in the final frame, as Tyson Foerster beat Kai Edmonds up high for his fourth point of the game (2 goals, 2 assists). The Fish would have a huge opportunity to get back in the contest, as penalties to Brandt Clarke and Christopher Cameron gave them a two-man advantage.
