Hunter Campbell would contribute his 20th goal of the season on the man advantage late in the second period, tapping in a back-door feed from Ben Hemmerling. The Tips struck again on the powerplay just minutes later, as Jackson Berezowski buried his team-leading 41st goal of the season on the rebound.

Jacob Wright would add a backhand goal in the third period for his 19th of the year to cap off Everett's scoring. Vancouver netted two powerplay goals in the third period for a 5-2 final.

Koen MacInnes stopped 29 of 31 in the win, his 18th. Everett's powerplay finished the evening three-for-five. With the win, the Tips improved to 40-10-3-5 on the year, picking up their Conference-leading 88th point.
