The Wings picked up a power play goal 5:33 into the first period to lead the game 1-0. Toledo evened the game at one when Tyler Barnes (32nd) deflected a Shane Berschbach pass into the Kalamazoo net at 12:20 of the first. That opened up the gates for the Walleye as A.J. Jenks sent a wrist shot past Kalamazoo goaltender Joel Martin at 13:21 for his 14th of the year.
