They would strike again just 1:39 later, as Cory Schillo would sneak home his 9th goal of the season to give the road team an early two goal lead. Isaac Embree would give his team a 3 goal lead just one minute & 8 seconds after that with his 12th of the year that gave the Mils a 3-0 lead after 20 minutes. Shots were 17-6.
The Moneymen would add to their lead once again early into the 2nd as Damian Bentz would finish off a nice passing from Shane Sherban and Daniel Liberty & redirect home his 15th of the season to give the Mils a 4-0 lead just 1:54 into the middle frame. Shots were 14-9 Melville in the 2nd and 31-15 total for the Mils after 2 periods.
The 3rd period went scoreless as the Mils held on for the 2 points.
