The Wolverines responded with an Owen Wheatley powerplay goal from Boston Bird and Joey Moffatt.

But the Oil Capitals made it 4-2 when Buydens got his second of the game after a giveaway behind the net.

In the third after a missed penalty call, Carson Buydens was able to get a hat trick goal to put Virden up 5-2.

He later got his fourth goal on an empty netter to make it 6-2.
