Newfoundland responded strong in the second period as Alexis Michaud evened up the game 90 seconds into the middle frame before Marek Danicek grabbed a pair of his own goals to give the Regiment a 3-1 lead after two.
Tyson Goguen made it 4-1 on the opening shift of the third period and after the Foreurs got one back late Ben Veitch sealed it for Newfoundland with an empty netter to give the visitors a 5-2 win. Goaltender Antoine Proulx picked up his first victory since February 7 and his fourth win in as many starts.
