Nitro's survive late push from Golden Rockets to win 4-3

After losing their first game of the season in Golden, the Nitro's had something to prove this game.

1st
The Dynamiters jumped out to an early lead with a PP goal from Richter (he's scored a lot of those so far this season). The Rockets responded back quickly to tie the game. Wallace scored in the last minute of the period to give the Nitro's the lead heading into the second.

Pretty similar teams... high level tempo... each rolling four lines

2nd
The Marchi, Richter, and Wallace line got on a roll. Marchi and Wallace both scored with the others in the line getting assists. This gave the Nitro's a 4-1 lead going into the third, much better than their last outing in Golden.

Full marks to dynamiters. They've played a strong game so far.
