The Thunder recognized Military Appreciation Night at Thunderdome playing against the Mentor Ice Breakers. After a goal by Mentor’s Farrington in the first seconds of the first period, the Thunder held off the Ice Breakers until late in the first when Conway found the back of the net. 
The second period began with tempers flaring, gloves were dropped, and Thunder’s Basey and Mentor’s Essery squared up. Not yet a minute into the second and Buttitta scored Mentor’s third goal and a fourth Mentor goal was scored by Crawford at 5:04. The Thunder rallied to score late in the second period when Marker put one in the net assisted by Kalinin and Basey.
