Twenty-three seconds later Spencer McHaffie netted another, assisted by Scott McHaffie and Ryan Veillet.

The game was low on penalties, with neither team scoring on their power plays, three for Mission and two for Aldergrove.

Kodiaks keeper Mark Menicucci earned first star for the shutout, with second star to Gonzales and third to Spencer McHaffie.
