Things got heated early in the third period as Andrew Roski and Kyle Pereira squared off and both were assessed fighting majors.

Michael D'Orazio added insult to injury with a late goal in the final minute and the Huskies cruised to the 3-0 lead. Curtis Black made 25 saves to pick up the shutout.

Bobby Nadeau made 42 saves in the loss for the Tigers.
