The stretch pass from the Admirals zone hit Kamenev at the Rampage blue line for a breakaway goal, Kamenev's seventh goal of the season. Aronson and Mazanec were awarded the assists.
The Admirals made it 2-0 with a power play goal on the team's eighth power play attempt of the game at 10:30 of the third period.. Taylor Aronson blocked away a clearing attempt at the Rampage blue line. The puck found its way to Cody Hodgson at the right circle. Hodgson dished the puck to Kamenev at the right post and he quickly fed Colton Sissons in the slot for a one-timer goal. The goal was Sissons' fifth of the season and third on the power play.
Admirals forward Adam Payerl closed the scoring as he converted a turnover in front of the Rampage goal at 17:27 of the third period for his seventh goal of the season.
