Then the game changed dramatically at the 21 minute mark. North recieved a red card for a vicious hit on Charlie Pirc.

The Mounties did not give up and pressed hard and an Alex Garcia rebound was rammed home by Charlie Pirc to bring the score to 3-2. Unfortunately the Mounties received a red card at the 12 minute mark when a North player went down and the advantage was lost.
