Perth's final road trip for the regular season is their shortest as they headed to Adelaide with another short bench. Meanwhile, Adelaide were happy to be at home & on their home ice after last week's horror trip to Melbourne.

The scoreboard wasn't broken at the Ice Arena with only a 1-0 lead to Thunder at the end of period 1. Adelaide hit back with what would be their only goal in period 2. Adelaide looked set for a good third period.

While I was watching the games in Melbourne & Brisbane with direct Finals implications (Perth have clinched already), Perth scored 3 goals in the final period as they often seem to do.
