Chyzowski fired a long-range shot to the short side just five seconds later, securing his second goal of the night and sending the Hawks into intermission with a one-goal lead.
The Silvertips scored the tying goal 11 seconds into the second, but Portland once again answered in the following shift, as Josh Zakreski found the back of the net. Less than three minutes later, Tyson Yaremko extended the Hawks' lead to 4-2, beating the goaltender with a quick release shot from the slot on the power play. The Silvertips made it a one-goal game at 11:13 of the third, but the Hawks held on for the 4-3 victory.
