The match was played at the Allstate Arena. Wolves forward had his stick slashed out of his hands as the match went in overtime of Game 1 of the Western Conference final.

The Wolves had gotten closer to the Calder Cup final thanks to the performance of Tye McGinn and T.J. Tynan. Tye McGinn scored a goal and added an assist, and T.J. Tynan had a pair of helpers. AHL MVP Daniel Carr also had a good game as he scored a goal. Oscar Dansk had stopped 40 shots in the match.

Corey Tropp had retaliated in the first period and tied things for both teams. Carr had stepped forward and returned the lead for Wolves. The Gulls had no intention to go down without a fight. They had scored with three minutes remaining in the match to tie things 4-4 and make the match go to overtime.
