The Vees used a strong 60 minute effort on their way to a 4-1 victory in game two of their seven-game series with the Seattle Thunderbirds. 

For the second straight night the Vees got the opening goal. This time it was Louie Wehmann throwing a puck off a defender and in for his first of the post-season. 

The Vees would add to their lead on the powerplay as Nolan Stevenson fired a shot from the line that was deflected in by Tristan Petersen to make it 2-0 after 20 minutes of play. 

Penticton added to their lead in the second, again on the powerplay, as Jacob Kvasnicka potted a rebound for his second goal of the playoffs. 

Late in the second Coster Dunn countered for the Thunderbirds sending the score 3-1 to the final frame.  

Ryden Evers rounded out the scoring as he threw a puck to the net that fooled goaltender Marek Sklenicka to make it 4-1.

That was the final score as the Vees take a 2-0 series lead to Kent, WA for games three and four.
