Both goalies were tested early in the period, but it wasn't until late in the period when Tomas Fleischmann got the Blackhawks on the board with a wrist shot from the top of the right slot that went stick high on Canucks goalie, Ryan Miller. With 2:18 left in the period, the Hawks took a 1-0 lead into the 1st intermission.

The first two periods, the Canucks managed 13 shots, in the third period, 15 shots. Darling shined as he stopped them all, including point blank shots from Burrows on at least two occasions, not to mention other scoring chances made available by the Hawks defense. For the 2nd night in a row, Ladd provided another huge goal as he wristed a shot similar to Fleischmann's first period shot, high, stick side, and into the net with just 2:17 left in regulation, which proved to be the game-winner.
