It was a wild game in Saskatoon as the Blades defeated the Warriors 5-4 in overtime.

The Blades eventually found the winner, though, as Fraser Minten beat Dimitri Fortin with under two minutes left to send the Blades home happy. Standouts from the game included Denton Mateychuk, who scored twice, and Minten, who, on top of the winner, scored the game's first goal.
