Moline, Ill.

Aduba and White scored two minutes and twenty-six seconds apart in the second period to stake the Mallards to a 2-0 lead. Aduba's superb solo rush opened the scoring at 8:42 of the second. The Mallards were on the power play when White pounced on a loose puck to double the lead at the 11:08 mark.

Kaufmann, who was sharp throughout the contest, was at his best in the third period, stopping 17 shots in the final 20 minutes alone and keeping Flint off the scoreboard until Steve Silver's long range shorthanded goal made it 2-1 with 7:01 remaining.
