Burke added to the Fuel’s lead with his second goal of the night at 7:07 to make it 2-0. Defensemen Lucas Brenton and Chris Cameron claimed the assists on that goal. 

At 9:00, Maine’s Xander Lamppa took a slashing penalty putting the Fuel on the power play for the first time. The Mariners killed it off. 

Indy went up 3-0 with a goal by Kevin Lombardi at 13:09. Cam Hausinger collected the lone assist on that goal. 

Lemos took a holding penalty at 14:50, giving Maine their first power play chance of the game. 

Maine bounced back before the end of the period with quick goals by Carter Johnson, exactly as the penalty on Lemos expired, and Lamppa 13 seconds later.
