THE ACTION

• At 15:18, junior Michael Pitts slipped a pass from the right point that Bondra redirected from the low right circle, doubling the lead.
• Bondra scored again at 5:41 of the second frame, finishing an odd-man rush at the left post after Wrenn's pass. Von Steinbergs went top shelf from the right circle on a power play at 7:19 to make it 4-0.
