A slow start by the Phantoms saw them being out-shot 10-1 halfway through the first period, but on the back of a strong performance in net by Alex Lyon and two goals from Danick Martel, they were able to win game one and take a series lead.
1st Period
About four minutes in the first real dangerous shot of the game came off a James de Haas turnover behind the net. Jakob Forsbacka Karlsson took the puck, and took the shot right in front of Alex Lyon, who made a huge save.
