The Wolves took a two-goal lead at 14:58 of the middle stanza when Mark Popovic's point-shot bounced off Bulldogs netminder Jeff DesLauriers and into the net.

The Bulldogs cut the Wolves lead to two goals at 8:11 of the third period when Michael Lambert scored his fourth goal of the season. Duncan Milroy earned the lone assist.
Chicago regained its three-goal lead just 36 seconds later when Karl Stewart, who was positioned in the high slot, one-timed Colin Stuart's pass behind DesLauriers.
Bulldogs forward Marc-Antoine Pouliot rounded out the scoring with 1:17 remaining in the game when he scored his third goal of the season. Pouliot batted the puck out of mid-air and into the net after Wolves goaltender Tuomas Tarkki stopped Andrei Kostitsyn's initial shot.
