The Ice Wolves for the 3rd straight game would strike first as Chad McIwain shot hit a couple of skates on its way through and beat Terrier net minder Matthew Pesenti for his 2nd of the playoffs to make it 1-0 just 6:21 into the 1st.
The Terriers responded late as Captain Chantz Petruic walked over the blue-line and his snapshot beat Xavier Cannon over the right pad of his 4th of the series evening it up at 1-1 with 3:05 left in the first frame.
But the Ice Wolves on a late PP with 39 seconds to go, Spencer Kennedy regained his team the lead as his wrist-shot went over the left shoulder of Pesenti and into the back of the net to give the home-side a 2-1 advantage after 1 period.
Grant Longtin regained the Wolves their one goal lead with a PP goal early in the 2nd to make it 2-1.
The Terriers would come back though with two goal to tie it up as Keenan Taphorn and Petruic with his 2nd of the night made it 3-3 through 40 minutes.
In the 3rd, Yorkton grabbed their first lead just 3:30 in as Kaeden Taphorn scored to make it 4-3 before brother Keenan added his second of the evening to give the road team a 5-3 lead.
But La Ronge cut their deficit in half as Spencer Kennedy got his 2nd straight PP goal going top-shelf before Kaeden Taphorn added his 2nd of the period to once again put Yorkton ahead by two.
Booker Chacalias added one late for La Ronge with 2:57 to go but that's as close as they would get.
