The Wranglers carried the lead through the second period and Derek Edwardson added a third period marker. Mike McKenna posted his second shutout of the series.

3-0 Wranglers

LAST GAME vs Fresno: In the midst of an eight game road trip between five different cities, the Salmon Kings met the Falcons for a Sunday night match at the Save Mart Centre.

Victoria grabbed the lead in the first period as Kiel McLeod beat Goaltender Ryan MacDonald for his 15th goal of the season.

John Wroblewski tied the game at one apiece pushing a rebound past Bryan Bridges in a Falcons powerplay.

Halfway through the third period, Wroblewski notched his second goal of the game for the Fresno lead, and Tyler Kindle secured the win with an empty net goal in the final minutes.
