Parity did not start of so well for the 98s as they couldn't get out of the gates and played one of their poorest efforts in their own end in some time. Turnovers on the blue line is what did them in as it was a problem the entire game, on the offensive end the Vipers had plenty of chances but in the end did not show the urgency around the cage that helps produce results in this very disappointing performance. Kyle Hentosh would tally the lone goal for the Vipers as the only time any forwards decided to go near the cage it resulted in the goal, Kyle Lynch and Dante Maribito picked up the assists
