DMITRY SOKOLOV then brought the Wolves within one with CONOR CUMMINS and REAGAN O’GRADY picking up the assists. The Colts added two more goals in the second, including a short-handed marker from Cordell James, to take a 4-1 lead after 40 minutes.
The flood gates opening in the third period as a total of 10 goals were scored between the two clubs.
