For the second night, Iowa landed the first goal on a power-play at 3:13, with Alex Aleardi answering for the Komets with his third goal of the series at 11:48, with assists coming from Jack Dugan and Odeen Tufto. The first-period scoring was concluded with a Blake Murray goal at 18:36 to give the Komets their first series lead at 2-1.

In the second period, Dugan tallied his first goal of the playoffs at 5:53, with assists credited to Murray and Matt Murphy to make it a 3-1 game after two periods.

Iowa's Jules Boscq started the scoring 27 seconds into the third period to pull the Heartlanders within one.
