Poul Andersen threaded a slap pass to Patrick Sopiarz, who was waiting crease-side to tip it past Raiders netminder Michal Orsulak.<\/p>\n<p>Just three minutes later, back on the man advantage, the Rebels grabbed their first lead of the series. Kalder Varga from the bottom of the circle buried the go-ahead goal.<\/p>\n<p>With a minute to go in the period, chaos erupted in front of the Rebels net. Amid the scramble, Sarkenov found the puck once again and found the net for his second goal of the game.<\/p>\n<p>The game remained tied until late into period two when a close call went in favour of the Raiders to give them the lead.<\/p>\n<p>It appeared that Kondro had made a spectacular, desperation save on Prince Albert&#8217;s Aiden Oiring. But after video review, the on-ice call was overturned and the Raiders took a one-goal lead into period three.<\/p>\n<p>The third period saw the pace slow, but the fight never wavered. The Raiders eventually put in an empty-net goal in the dying seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Both netminders stood tall throughout the contest, with Kondro stopping 22 and Orsulak denying 18. Red Deer made the most of their opportunities, going 2-for-4 on the powerplay for a 50-per cent conversion rate, while the Raiders were held off the board twice on the man advantage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brandt Three Stars\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1.
