Defended home ice

After leaving Prince George with a well-deserved road split, the Winterhawks returned to the friendly confines of the VMC. As they did in Games 1 and 2 at the CN Centre, Portland scored first. Alex Weiermair's first of three goals came after Cougars' netminder Josh Ravensbergen misplayed a puck behind the net. He scored his second via a perfect dish from captain Kyle Chyzowski on the power play, and to cap off his hat trick, the Los Angeles, California, native chipped the puck high over Ravensbergen on a power-play rush.

Carter Sotheran provided a spark from the blue line with his pair of goals, including the eventual game-winner with 9:52 remaining in the second period. Tyson Jugnauth did Tyson Jugnauth things all night. His seven shots were a game high, and for the second game in a row, the Seattle Kraken prospect finished the evening with four points. After an official stat correction, Jugnauth will be tied for second in playoff league scoring with nine points through his first three games.

2006-born rookie forward Carsyn Dyck picked up his first WHL postseason point when he helped set up Jugnauth's goal 3:42 into the middle frame.

Keep in mind, three-on-three overtime goes away in the postseason. If the game is tied after 60 minutes, just like Game 1, the two teams will take a 15-minute intermission break and return for continuous five-on-five overtime hockey until a winner is decided.

Lastly, line combinations are not required during playoffs, so only starters and scratches will be provided.
