The Lions broke the 1-1 tie with a power play goal at 13:26 of the 2nd. Just five seconds into their man advantage opportunity, Isaac Dufort snuck a backhand past the glove of Ryan Bischel to make it a 2-1 game. The Trois-Rivieres power play caused more trouble later in the period when Tommy Cormier batted a cross-crease puck out of midair at 17:43, just seconds after the Mariners had returned to full strength. 
 
Tommy Cormer added his second goal of the game on a 2-on-0 break at 2:46 of the third to up the Trois lead to 4-1. Morgan Adams-Moisan tipped in a Jacon Paquette shot at 14:27 for the Lions' fifth goal. The Lions improved to 6-0-1 in seven games against Maine this season.
