The Green Bay Gamblers scored early and often in its 7-4 win over Dubuque Monday night at the Resch Center.

The Gamblers opened the game with four first-period goals off the sticks of Jackson Kunz (2 goals), Ryan Kirwan, and Victor Mancini. After the Fighting Saints made it 4-2 in the second period, Cam Lund scored his first goal of the season to extend the lead to 5-2. The two teams traded goals in the third period with four tallies registered in 11 minutes. Mason Lohrei and Ryan Greene found the net for the Gamblers. Greene, Kunz, Lohrei, Mancini, and Jackson Hallum all had at least two points in the contest while Aaron Randazzo stopped 27 of the 31 shots he faced.

The Gamblers still have an outside chance of hosting some playoff hockey after being one of the league leaders in attendance this season. They can capture the #2 seed behind the Anderson Cup champion Chicago Steel if they sweep this weekend's series in Dubuque and if Muskegon only collects one point in its final three games. The Gamblers would then own home ice for all three games in the first round.
