At 7:08, Alex Cotton extended the Giants lead to 5-0 when his shot from the right wing point found its way home. Justin Lies and Ty Thorpe both earned assists.

The game’s winning goal would come 63 seconds later from Adam Hall. The over-age forward snuck past the defence, took a Jaden Lipinski feed and ripped a shot home for his 14th of the season.

Marcus Nguyen began the Portland comeback bid with a shorthanded goal off the rush at 10:23.

James Stefan then made it 6-2 when his shot from the left-wing circle snuck through traffic and past Will Gurski.

Nguyen wasn’t done. He scored his second of the game and 17th of the season at 19:28, making the score 6-3.

In the third period, Kyle Chyzowski moved Portland within two goals when he converted on an unassisted, back-hand effort at 10:46.

Then with 15:28 gone in the final period, James Stefan’s shot from the left-wing point found its way in, giving him two on the night, and moving the score to 6-5. Despite a late push in the final minutes, it was as close as the Winterhawks would get.
