• BC couldn't pull even despite breakaways from Lukas Gustafsson and Cam Burke later in the period and Trevor Kuntar hit the post six minutes into the middle frame
• QU added to its lead at 12:48 on a right point wrist shot from Charles-Alexis Legault that snuck inside the left post through traffic
