With 1:09 left in the second stanza, Southern Maine converted the only man-advantage chance of the period off the shot of freshman Mathieu Sabourin (Alexandria, ON, Canada) which was his first career goal cutting the deficit to 2-1. 
 
-The third period saw a combined four goals, two from each team. Senior Adam Withers (Kenora, ON, Canada) deadlocked the score just 1:56 into the third and then Gardiner gave the hosts a 3-2 lead with his second goal of the season. Four minutes passed until Coyle tied the margin at 3-3 and with 4:50 to go Smith notched the game-winner. USM fired multiple pucks on net during the final 2:05 with the empty cage, but couldn't get the tying score.
