Cameron Dimmitt continued his fantastic play with his 16th goal of the season to tie for the team lead with

Louie Abounader scored his ninth goal of the season just 19 seconds after Kobryn's second goal unassisted to tie the game.
Chris Eckler notched his 12th of the season on the power play as the teams went into the locker room for the second intermission. Kobryn got his hat trick with just 1:34 left in regulation forcing overtime. The only shot of overtime belonged to the Panthers and they buried it.
Tyler Ploeg scored his first goal of the season on a 2-on-1 breakout as Hulford was the other option. Ploeg went to the right circle area and beat Austyn Roudebush on the low blocker side. Adrian led 37-26 in shots on goal as Davenport held the advantage in the second period, 11-10.
