For the second consecutive game, Trois-Rivières’ Tyler Hylland opened the scoring, extending his goal streak to four games 7:31 into the opening period.

Toledo answered back just under four minutes later when Tyler Spezia took a centering pass from Trenton Bliss and found the back of the net for his sixth goal of the playoffs.
