A power play goal for the Mavericks. Allen evened the score early in the third period as Danny Katic found the back of the net for his 6^th goal of the playoffs from Colby McAuley and Ty Prefontaine. The game remained tied until under two minutes to go when Mavericks forward Jackson Jutting’s wrap-around goal went off an Americans players skate and into the net to give the Mavericks their second lead of the game.
