Thunder Bay, ON- In a game that was do-or-die for Thunder Bay, the Timberwolves responded with force and unrelenting pressure on the Denver Spurs in Game 6.
>>>Forty-seven seconds into the game, rookie forward Bryan Little put the home team on top with his second of the playoffs from Keith Ballard and Tom Preissing. The first twenty minutes concluded with the Timberwolves up 1-0.
>>>Marian Gaborik made it 2-0 for the Timberwolves at 8:23 in the second for the Slovak's second of the playoffs from David Perron and Marc Savard.
>>>Through forty minutes, Thunder Bay dominated Denver. Leading 2-0 and outshooting the Spurs 31-23. A far cry from the one-sided affair from boys in orange from Colorado.
>>>"There's not one guy in our room that wanted to come close to the poor play we put forth in the last game," said Timberwolves centre, Marc Savard. "We needed to clean up our own end while also not letting up on the gas and pushing the puck forward."
>>>In the third period, Maxime Lapierre cut the Timberwolves lead in half for his first of the playoffs from Ian Laperierre and Ryan Smyth. Making it 2-1 at 1:58 into the third.
>>>But pressure would subside and David Perron would take that goal back with his forth of the playoffs to make it 3-1 Thunder Bay.
>>>Niclas Wallin and TJ Oshie would polish off the Spurs and end the game at 5-1.
>>>Game 7 will be tomorrow in Denver.
