Game notes edit
With the first win only hours past the Junior Jackals again faced off against the NY Coyotes only this time they knew what it felt like to win so they worked hard and again came out on top with a 4-1 victory. Anthony O'Malley was first to score for the Jackals on a power play pass from Drew Mitchell and Mike Kasel. Goal two was a shorthanded goal by Bobby Thomaris from Kevin Burke and Shane Long. Alex Walker scored goal number 3 on the powerplay from Ross Grippin. Jake Davenport put goal number 4 into the net from a powerplay pass by Mike Kasel. Max Glaser was strong in the net with 40 saves, allowing only one goal." It was a battle out there, and I am sure glad we won!" stated all-star forward John Brown.
