Guelph beat Kitchener 6-0 in regulation, and the margin was built almost entirely in a four-goal middle period. A scoreless opening 20 minutes gave no hint of it; the Storm then scored four times in the second and twice more in the third.
The first period ended 0-0, with neither side converting. Guelph's second period — 4-0 on the scoreboard — was the turning point, and the game was effectively settled before the final 20 minutes, which the Storm won 2-0 to reach the 6-0 final.
The number that frames it: six goals across the final two periods and none against. A clean sheet for Guelph's goaltending in a game where the Rangers never led or tied after the second intermission.
