The Jr. Blues answered with two goals in the 2nd period sandwiched in between a goal from Wilderness forward Koby Bender, as Anthony Scarsella and Brennan Blaszczak scored, but it would not be enough as Kyle Patava added a 3rd period insurance goal. Jakes ended up with three points on the night and Chase Munroe made 18 saves in the win.
