Kitchener, ON - It was a back-and-forth affair for game three of this second-round series between the Spitfires and the Rangers. Kitchener got within one goal of the Spitfires on two occasions but couldn't find the equalizer and would eventually fall by a score of 6-3. Windsor capitalized on two of their six power play opportunities, once with the two-man advantage, while Kitchener was held to just one power play chance themselves.
