Just over a minute later, Jackson Roth made a nice move around the Kings netminder Marko Belak. The goal was assisted by Van Engelen and Ryan Jossy.

But the Kings responded once again, just 35 seconds later when Alex Senf was able to get it past the Wolverines Tresor Wotton.

In the second period, Dauphin got out to a lead when Blake Boudreau scored.

The Wolverines ended up responding, when Andrew Boucher was able to go high over Belak.

Dauphin tied it up with another Boudreau goal, just minutes left in the period to tie it up at 4.

In the third period, 15 seconds into it, Boone Mathison was able to get a loose puck that went off Andrew Boucher and beat Belak with a shot, to make it 5-4.

There was no more scoring until Carson Baptiste got an empty netter in the last minute of the game.

Tresor Wotton stopped 42 shots in the win, and was given the first star of the game.

The Wolverines stopped their three game skid with the win, but weren’t able to move up in the standings.
