Slough took the lead early on in the game when Slava Koulikov picked up from Shaun Thompson and netted at 3.28. Soon after Slough killed their first penalty of the game and later on back at even strength James Ferrara levelled the game at 13.15 with Peterborough’s only goal. Slough killed off another penalty before the period ended.

The second period followed the same way the first period was played. Slough killed off two penalties before taking back the lead when Darius Pliskauskas scored at 32.46.

During a spell of four on four play in the final period Billy Phillips netted his first goal of the season at 46.02 to make it 3-1 before Peterborough picked up their first spell shorthanded which ended gifting the home team a 5 on 3 advantage they failed to capitalise on. Even 1.50 at the end of the game with an empty net failed to let Peterborough pull back and Slough completed their win.

Slough: Pliskauskas 1+1; Phillips, Koulikov 1+0; Emersic, S Thompson 0+1. Net: Rockman (60.00) 36/1

The teams exchanged early goals with the score level at 1-1 within the first minutes. Rick Plant scored for Guildford at 3.00 but Dan Davies equalised at 4.46 and Slough never looked back.

Peter Jasik put Slough ahead with his strike at 18.09 and the home team went to the interval 3-2 ahead.

Guildford again enjoyed the shot advantage in the third period but Gregg Rockman wasn’t to be beaten as he kept out all 10 shots.
