Svechnikov restored the two-goal lead just 18 seconds later. Aho tried to make a pass from behind the net to Svechnikov in the left circle but it was blocked, with the puck finding its way right back to Aho.

Jarvis opened the scoring 3:35 into the game. Brady Skjei sent a shot just wide left of the net. Aho recovered the puck below the goal line and tried to bank it off Grubauer. The rebound dropped straight down, with Jarvis chipping the puck just over Grubauer's leg pad.
