In the 2nd, the Mils regained their three goal lead just under 4 minutes in as Gaborik Carlson deflected in his 2nd in as many nights.

Shots 9-6 Kindersley in 2nd, and 19-17 overall for Melville through 2 periods.
Jadon Iyogun gave the Mils their first 4 goal lead of the night as he finished off a nice passing play hammering home his 11th of the season before Klips’ F Brock Evans replied with a powerplay goal of his own to wrap up the scoring.
