Silvertips forward Dominik Rymon got the scoring started at 9:47 when he scored his 13th goal of the season on the power play with Rockets forward in the box for high sticking. Everett would head into the second period with a 1-0 lead and would add to it when 20-year-old forward Tyler MacKenzie would continue his solid season with his 21st goal at 14:43 to double Everett's lead.
The Silvertips would hold their two goal advantage until the final frame when Jesse Heslop put Everett ahead by three. Kanjyu Gojsic would break the shutout bid with a nice shot that beat Silvertips goaltender Raiden LeGall to get the Rockets within striking distance but MacKenzie would score his 22nd into the empty net for a 4-1 Everett win.
