Vikings scored two in the game from Brendan Doherty and Ethan Wensink. Campbell was pulled after three goals on 8 shots in the 1st period. Paputsakis made 16 saves on 20 shots. Laird had a big night with 2G/2A and so did Miller 2G/1A in 3 point night.

Baggio and Somers each had 1G/1A in multi point game while Currie helped on the back end with 2 assists. Peacock made 33 saves in the win. The Blue Wings were 4 for 14 on the power play. Casselman outshot Perth 35-28. Vikings are in big trouble while Perth is in great hands of this series.
