- Chatham scored again to restore a three-goal advantage, but McCosh's second goal of the night gave the Bengals hope heading into the third period down just 5-3.
- The Cougars scored once again to open the third period, before Glamos continued his torrid stretch with a goal to make it 6-4 on the power play.
