Matthew Harrington buried a rebound at 5:06 on the power play for his fourth of the season but Danbury got the game level before the period ended. The second period belonged to the Whalers as they scored three times in the middle frame. Julian Fraser expanded the lead to 6-2 before Nick Wheeler drove home his fifth goal of the season at 15:40. All five of Wheeler's goals have come on the man advantage, tops among FHL defensemen.

The Bluefins will travel to Watertown Black Friday to face the 1000 Islands Privateers.
