Fort Wayne, IN --The Komet returned home to host the Reading Royals for the first time since 2014. After a scoreless first period, three goals were scored in the first 1:56 of the second period.

The Royals reclaimed the lead with a goal from Shane Seller at 1:56 to make the game 2-1.
In the third, Reading's Robert Calisti scored at 10:47 to push the Royals' lead to two.
