The only difference came in the form of a power-play goal with 39.2 seconds left that put Lindenwood up 1-0 going into the first intermission.
The Cyclones answered back in a big way in the second period scoring two goals. They had a little late-period magic as well with Zack Johnson scoring a goal with 21 seconds left. Going into the second intermission the Cyclones led the Lions 2-1.
The Lions came back swinging with a power-play goal from Mike Lozano to tie the game at two. With one second left, Lindenwood snuck a puck passed Matt Cooper on the power play to complete its third-period comeback.
