In the third period, Lucas Bloodoff tied the game on the power-play just 47 seconds into the final frame and added the empty-netter to seal the victory. Mike Seidel buried the game-winning goal in the third period as a part of a three-point night. Lucas Bloodoff's three-point evening was his first professional multi-point game. The Jackals are 22-14-6 all-time against Cincinnati.
