At 8:47, Gavin Bartha restored the two-goal lead for the Terriers, taking a pass in tight from Junek and scoring top shelf and giving the Terriers a 3-1 lead. 

Bartha doubled down at 13:25 on the power play. William Leonard was stopped by the pad of Spencer Michnik, but Bartha grabbed the rebound and scored to make it 4-1. 

Thomas Ries scored the Terriers third power play goal of the game, sliding the puck past Michnik in the final minute of the second period at 19:13. 

After two: 5-1 Terriers 

Kaeden Serpa started the third period in net for the North Stars, but the Terriers continued to pour it on. 

At 12:09, Cash Lanigan scored top shelf on the far side to make it 6-1 Terriers, before Gabriel Courchesne made it 7-1 at 13:14. 

Alessio Nardelli scored after walking into the zone at 17:25, but it was too little, too late as the Terriers evened up the series with a landslide victory. 

Final score: 7-2 Terriers 

Series: Tied 2-2 

A big factor in the win for the Terriers was winning the special teams battle, as Yorkton went 3-6 on the power play and the North Stars went 0-5 on the man advantage. 

The series goes back to Yorkton on April 11 for a crucial game five. The winner on Saturday will get within a win of moving on to the Canterra Seeds Cup finals.
