Matt Petgrave opened the scoring in the second period for the Attack, scoring on the power play to make the score 5-2 a little under half way through the period. The Spirit would answer to get the score back within two as Justin Kea netted his first of the season off a pass from Ryan Tuffin. That was as close as the Spirit would get however as Artur Garvus would net his third goal of the game in the third period to make the score 6-3.
