Both goals from the first period were scored on the advantage; Wild defenseman Joe Hicketts sent a slap-shot past the back shoulder of Weeks at 5:52 while Philp's tally at 10:56 put the IceHogs on the board and tied the game 1-1.

Seney game the IceHogs the near the end of the middle frame, tapping it in behind McIntyre off a one-timer from Louis Crevier. Heating up in the final stanza, Teply sent a one-timer between the irons at 4:34 before Philp snapped his second man-advantage tally of the contest past McIntyre to extend Rockford's lead to 4-2.

After a missed call with 44 seconds remaining in the second, Wild forward Steven Fogarty was credited Iowa's second tally of the night to even the score at 2-2 after the teams went to the dressing room for the second intermission. After a review at the intermission, officials ruled the goal was good.
