Portland wouldn’t stay down for long, as Alex Weiermair buried a mid-slot one-timer for his 25th of the year. Max Pšenička then gave the Hawks their first lead of the game with his second goal in as many games, blasting home a rip from the blueline. Nathan Brown then skated in an empty net goal in the final seconds to secure the win for the Hawks. The win is Portland’s first on the road since November 21, 2025 when the Hawks took a 7-4 victory in Kamloops.
