Eight minutes later, Oskar Komarov forced a turnover in the attacking zone and fed Riv captain Vitaly Levyy who scored his 20th of the season and make it 2-0 黑马磁力.
Coquitlam fired 17 shots on the Rivermen goalie in the third, but couldn鈥檛 get past Beaupit.
Dalton MacGillivray scored a late empty netter to make 3-0.
All three stars of the game were Rivermen; Beaupit, Riesterer and Levyy.
