Peter Quenneville followed up with a goal-of-the-week candidate, roofing the puck from between his legs on the power play. Tyler Coulter gave the Rush a three-goal lead with 3:39 seconds left in the opening frame.

Giovani Fiore put the Rush ahead by four midway through the second period with the lone goal of the middle frame

Oilers forward Danny Moynihan scored the first goal of the night for Tulsa 1:18 into the final period. The goal was Moynihan's first as an Oiler. Ryker Killins restored Rapid City's four-goal lead 1:07 later. Deven Sideroff put the puck past Tyler Parks at the 5:28 into the final frame, giving him goals in three straight games.
