22 seconds into the second Montpetit gets the Mavs on the board, putting a sweet deke on goaltender Reiter then sliding it past the right leg as Reiter was sprawled out on the ice. The second goal came just five minutes later when UNO finally got a break on a loose puck in the crease.
Off of one of the many odd-man rushes created to start the second period, the loose puck finds Matt White who puts it five hole to tie it at 2. Duluth was called for slashing on the play but the Mavs couldn't get a third goal to take the lead on the ensuing power play.
UNO's defense was not making the same mistakes as in the first period and it was rather evident. Faulkner faced more shots in the second than he did in the first but the shots weren't as good of quality on the first.
Twice Faulkner made excellent saves, coming out of the net to cut down the angle on a wide-open shot and getting a pad on it. Later he showed off some nifty glove work and kept the score 2-2.
Montpetit and Hendrickson both went to the box to end the second, starting the third 4 on 4
