It was all Flint, as they scored just 29 seconds into the game and added another in the first period.

To start the second period the Firebirds opened it to a 3-0 lead before Owen Griffin got one back, but before Oshawa could get anything going Flint added a fourth in the third period putting the game to rest.

For Flint keep an eye out Kaden Pitre who sits second on the team in points with 26 and first in goals with 13.
