In the second game of the night we have Tuck hosting the Gamblers. Tuck comes into tonight off a win over the Nords and the Gamblers are coming into tonight off a loss to the Whalers in the last minute of the third period. The game started out with both teams coming out hard and exchanging penalties but neither team was able to score on their power play chances. It wasn"t until the 5:20 mark that the Gamblers Ian Stelzner put the Gamblers up 1-0. The Gamblers would make the score 2-0 at 3:30 when Ethan Gage put the puck past Rosen after being set up by line mates Matty Marrazzo and Jason Gramling. With the Gamblers up 2-0 they would get a power play chance late in the period (2:38 left in the period), on the power play they were able to extend their lead to 3-0 on a Max Wood"s goal with 2:11 remaining. Tuck would get on the scoreboard with 19 seconds left as Andrew Cox would make the score 3-1 heading into the second period.

In the second period Tuck came out with momentum and cut the lead down to one as Mark Rautiola would make the score 3-2 with 12:19 left in the period. Tuck would complete the comeback and tie the score at 3 when Andrew Cox scored his second of the night at the 6:54 mark in the period. With the score tied at 3 both teams would battle for the lead but neither could gain it. With 12 seconds left in the period the Gamblers would take a penalty and give Tuck a power play chance to take the lead heading into the third.

In the third Tuck came out with the power play and they were able to generate a few shots but it was the Gamblers who would score a shorthanded goal as Max Woods would get a breakaway goal to put the Gamblers up 4-3 with 13:43 left in the game. After taking the lead the Gamblers and Tuck would get in penalty trouble as there were 6 penalties called in the span of 5 minutes. During this time the Gamblers found themselves down a man again but that didn"t stop them from scoring as Topo LaCroix would get set up by Ryan LaCroix to put the Gamblers up 5-3 with 8:41 remaining in the game. The two teams would exchange a few more penalties but both would kill them off. With 4:18 left in the game Tuck"s Andrew Cox would get his third goal of the night and make the score 5-4. That would be as close Tuck would get as the Gamblers would add an empty net goal from Topo LaCroix with 24 seconds left in the game. The Gamblers would go on to win the hard fought game 6-4.
