Okanagan HC Europe U20 took it 6-4 in regulation at Bled, and the middle period was the difference. A 2-0 second frame turned a one-goal game into a 4-1 lead the hosts never fully clawed back.
The opening period went 2-1 to the visitors, an even enough start given the scoring pace. Okanagan then shut out the Hawks in the second and doubled their edge to 4-1, which proved the turning point. Bled won the third 3-2 and got to within two, but the visitors matched them goal for goal to close it out.
The number that frames it: Okanagan scored in all three periods, including two in a third period Bled actually won. Goal-by-goal detail was not available for this game, so the scoring is recorded only by period.
