Everett, WA– Vancouver couldn’t even the season series on Friday night as the Silvertips potted four goals on home ice. Captain Ty Thorpe did find the back of the net though, for his team-leading 36th goal of the season.

1st Period:

EVT: Aidan Sutter made it 2-0 with 1:40 left in the opening frame with a slap shot top corner on the power play.

2nd Period:

VAN: Ty Thorpe netted his 36th of the campaign to get the Giants on the board with 3:52 left in the second.

3rd Period:
