The Guelph Storm handled the Windsor Spitfires 4-2 in regulation, controlling the middle period to turn a one-goal edge into a cushion they never gave back. Scoring in all three periods, Guelph never trailed.
Guelph took the first period 1-0, then went 2-1 in the second to lead 3-1 after forty minutes — the stretch that effectively settled the night. Windsor split the third 1-1, which trimmed the margin but never got the visitors within one.
The number that matters is the two-goal buffer Guelph carried out of the second: a 3-1 lead after two meant Windsor needed multiple goals in the final twenty and managed just one. Guelph's 4-2 final was built on scoring in every period rather than a single burst.
