After Coventry recovered from 2 goals down, Marcus Tesink bagged the winner late in the 2^nd to break up a 2-2 tie and send Flames home with a 3-2 road win.

Charlie Curti opened the scoring at 13:44 and Mathieu Gosselin during a 5 on 3 powerplay 73 seconds from period time had the visitors up a pair to start the 2^nd.

At 27:05 Grant Mismash cut the Blaze deficit in half. Just a couple of minutes later his 2^nd of the evening had the teams back on level terms, but a reply by Tesink sent Flames to break again up by a single and that difference remained on the board when the 3^rd period timed out.

Justin Fazio made 31 saves on 33 shots against Mat Robson who turned away 19 of 22.
