Luca Romano and Jakub Chromiak followed suit for Kitchener's second and third goals respectively. Sudbury had only trailed twice all season after the first period before tonight's game.

Kitchener matched their first period goal total with another three goals in the middle frame. Trent Swick with a power play goal, Kitchener's second of the game, Adrian Misaljevic, and Cameron Reid closed the scoring for the second period.
