under 2,000 fans.

Sabol to put Storm back ahead with 3:27 left in the opening period.
From
there, Storm never looked back. Alexis D'Aoust found the back of the
net with Storm's second powerplay goal of the night 2:11 into the
second, while Hebert neatly took D'Aoust's pass and beat Sabol
shorthanded at 38:48 to give the hosts the full set.
Ryan Hughes
took Hebert's drop pass and set up Durflinger for a back-door tap-in
4:05 into the final period to make it 5-1, and while Keanu Yamamoto and
Brett Gravelle both puled goalies back for the Stars, Craig Martin hit
the empty net with 21 seconds to go to round off the win.
