However, the Steamers would not score again in the game as the Wave came back with six unanswered goals. Milwaukee tied the game 3-3 at the end of the first quarter on goals by Greg Howes and Semir Mesanovic.
The Wave would take the lead 4-3 in the second quarter when Chris Morman scored on a pass from Oliviero.
